Image compression is a type of data compression applied to digital images, to reduce their cost for storage or transmission. Algorithms may take advantage of visual perception and the statistical properties of image data to provide superior results compared with generic compression methods. Here is my blog post where I explain the techniques used along with some code snippets.
This repository contains code for image compression using:
Use Deep Learning (RNNs) for compressing images particularly, the implementation of this paper by Google:
