Abstract

We present the most popular image and video coding standards. We concentrate on lossy compression techniques and ISO and ITU-T standards. JPEG image compression standard is described and its successor, currently developed JPEG-2000 is mentioned. For video, there are several standards aimed at different applications. We describe them starting with ISO MPEG-1 and continuing with MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.261 and H.263.
