Across

1. Reducing the file size of an image while preserving its quality and visual information.

2. A data compression technique that assigns shorter codes to symbols that occur most frequently in a data stream.

3. Blurring of colors or bleeding of colors outside their boundaries in a compressed image

4. Reduction of smooth gradients in an image to distinct bands of color due to compression

5. A widely employed standard for compressing images which uses lossy compression techniques to decrease file sizes.

6. A lossy compression format used to compress animated images.

7. Reducing the size of a file by sacrificing a portion of its data, leading to a smaller size yet reduced quality.

8. Facts or information that is represented in a form suitable for processing.

9. Jagged or stair-stepped appearance of diagonal lines in compressed images

10. Circular or ring-shaped distortions that occur around edges in compressed images

11. The process of reducing the size of data by encoding it in a more efficient representation.

Down

12. Visible grid-like patterns that result from dividing images into blocks for compression

13. Random variations or distortions introduced in an image during compression

14. A simple form of data compression where consecutive characters in a string are replaced with a single instance of that character followed by the number of times it occurs.

15. The number of bits that are processed or transmitted per unit of time, typically measured in bits per second (bps)

16. The process of converting data into a format that can be used for transmission, storage, or processing.

17. Reducing the size of data without any loss of information.
