title: Image data compression.
abstract: The tutorial will expand on all of the topics outlined above and will provide additional information on other compression techniques. The practical implications of data compression and the important considerations in choosing a compression scheme will also be discussed. Development of new compression algorithms remains an active area of investigation and will continue to increase the degree of compression possible.
