Name the compression technique used by GIF image format.
Name the compression technique used by GIF image format.
GIF images use the following compression techniques:
- Lossless Compression: Statistical redundancy is exploited for representing data in more concise manner.
- Real-world data consists of statistical redundancy.
- Lampel-Ziv Compression: One of the most popular algorithms.
- Compression process is slow.
- It implements table-based compression, in which the table entries are substituted to repeat the strings of data.
- The table is encoded using Huffman encoding.
