JPEGLS
JPEGLS (often written JPEG-LS) is a standard for lossless and near-lossless compression of continuous-tone images. It was developed as part of the JPEG family and standardized jointly by ISO/IEC and ITU-T to provide a simple, efficient alternative to other lossless methods.
The core of JPEGLS is the LOCO-I (Low Complexity Lossless Compression for Images) algorithm, which combines
JPEGLS supports both strictly lossless compression and near-lossless operation, where a user-defined maximum error bound permits
Common application areas include medical and archival imaging, remote sensing, embedded systems, and any context where
Limitations include lack of features like progressive decoding and broader ecosystem support; however, its standardized specification
