Lossy= Is generally more effective but when opening file it loses some data. This is most noticeable in compressed pictures
Lossless= Is the most common method of compression and loses none of the data

What are disadvantage of video compression?
Following are the advantages of Video Compression:- Occupies less disk space.- Reading and writing is faster.- File transferring is faster.- The order of bytes is independent.Following are the disadvantages of video compression”- Compilation need to be done again for compression.- Errors may occur while transmitting data.- The byte / pixel relationship is unknown- Has to decompress the previous data.
How does entropy affect compression rate?
General compression techniques look for repeated patterns which can be compressed to a single iteration of the pattern. A data stream with high entropy will have relatively few repeated patterns, and will decrease the compression ratio.
What is the difference between compression and contraction?
Don't know if you are talking medical, mechanical or data compression. Contraction is when pressure is applied from outside, around an object. Muscles can contract to force a baby to be born or can cause a spasm. A strap can be tightened around something. Compression is pressure applied usually DICK in one direction, can be from all around like deep water compression. A vice can apply compression by tightening the jaws. A hydraulic press compresses items. Your spine can be damaged by compression, by too much pressure on your back which causes a compression fracture of the vertabra.
How do you measure the compression of a longitudinal wave?
It is the distance between two points of maximum compression (or minimum compression).
How can you use compression force in a sentence?
Here are a couple.The compression force of that machine is measured in tons.I was amazed at the compression force I felt.
Is GIF lossless or lossy?
GIF is a lossless compression introduced by CompuServe in 1987 using Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) lossless data compression.
How does compression affect the quality of a file?
That depends on the compression method used. There are some compression methods that are lossless, meaning that the original data can be 100% reconstructed. Zip files and similar methods use lossless compression.The compression used for images, photos, and video files is typically not lossless. Depending on the degree of compression achieved, there will be artifacts (imperfections) introduced in the data. A balance must be struck between the resulting file size and the degradation of the data.

What can lossless definition mean for the quality of sound?
Lossless data compression preserves the full resolution of the sound, meaning that no sound quality is lost during the compression process. Sound files compressed with lossless software are an exact copy of their original.
What is Data compression that retains image quality?
Lossless data compression such as that used by the algorithms that generate TIFF or PNG files retains all the original information.
Is TIFF lossy or lossless?
lossless
What is the need for compression?
motivation of lossless image compression
What is it called when compression data some of the data is lost yet can represent the original close enough?
When compressed data that is subsequently decompressed does not exactly match the original, yet it is considered close enough to the original to be usable, that algorithm is called a lossy compression. Contrast that with lossless compression, where the decompressed version exactly matches the original. Lossy compression is useful in audio and video, where exactness is not critical, while lossless compression is useful in data streams that must be preserved exactly. The lossy compression algorithm often results in more compact compressed results.
Are PNG files lossy or lossless?
Lossless. Compression techniques do not remove detail from the image.
What has the author Khalid Sayood written?

Difference between lossless and lossy compression?
File compression uses software algorithms to reduce file size by reducing the bit-rate of a file. Lossy compression takes it a bit further and lowers the quality of thr file to make it even smaller. Lossy compression is commonly used for media files, but would not be appropriate for other types of files.
What type of compression substitutes special characters for repeating patterns?
Lossless compression is the correct answer :)
