  • Exploring the .BMP File Format
    Exploring the .BMP File Format Don Lancaster Synergetics, Box 809, Thatcher, AZ 85552 copyright c2003 as GuruGram #14 http://www.tinaja.com [email protected] (928) 428-4073 The .BMP image standard is used by Windows and elsewhere to represent graphics images in any of several different display and compression options. The .BMP advantages are that each pixel is usually independently available for any alteration or modification. And that repeated use does not normally degrade the image. Because lossy compression is not used. Its main disadvantage is that file sizes are usually horrendous compared to JPEG, fractal, GIF, or other lossy compression schemes. A comparison of popular image standards can be found here. I’ve long been using the .BMP format for my eBay and my other phototography, scanning, and post processing. I firmly believe that… All photography, scanning, and all image post-processing should always be done using .BMP or a similar non-lossy format. Only after all post-processing is complete should JPEG or another compressed distribution format be chosen. Some current examples of my .BMP work now do include the IMAGIMAG.PDF post-processing tutorial, the Bitmap Typewriterthat generates fully anti-aliased small fonts, the Aerial Photo Combiner, and similar utilities and tutorials found on our Fonts & Images, PostScript, and on our Acrobat library pages. A few projects of current interest involving .BMP files include true view camera swings and tilts for a digital camera, distortion correction, dodging & burning, preventing white punchthrough on knockouts, and emphasis vignetting. Mainly applied to uncompressed RGBX 24-bit color .BMP files.

  • What Resolution Should Your Images Be?
    What Resolution Should Your Images Be? The best way to determine the optimum resolution is to think about the final use of your images. For publication you’ll need the highest resolution, for desktop printing lower, and for web or classroom use, lower still. The following table is a general guide; detailed explanations follow. Use Pixel Size Resolution Preferred Approx. File File Format Size Projected in class About 1024 pixels wide 102 DPI JPEG 300–600 K for a horizontal image; or 768 pixels high for a vertical one Web site About 400–600 pixels 72 DPI JPEG 20–200 K wide for a large image; 100–200 for a thumbnail image Printed in a book Multiply intended print 300 DPI EPS or TIFF 6–10 MB or art magazine size by resolution; e.g. an image to be printed as 6” W x 4” H would be 1800 x 1200 pixels. Printed on a Multiply intended print 200 DPI EPS or TIFF 2-3 MB laserwriter size by resolution; e.g. an image to be printed as 6” W x 4” H would be 1200 x 800 pixels. Digital Camera Photos Digital cameras have a range of preset resolutions which vary from camera to camera. Designation Resolution Max.

  • JPEG File Interchange Format Version 1.02
    JPEG File Interchange Format Version 1.02 September 1, 1992 Eric Hamilton C-Cube Microsystems 1778 McCarthy Blvd. Milpitas, CA 95035 +1 408 944-6300 Fax: +1 408 944-6314 E-mail: [email protected] JPEG File Interchange Format Version 1.02 Why a File Interchange Format JPEG File Interchange Format is a minimal file format which enables JPEG bitstreams to be exchanged between a wide variety of platforms and applications. This minimal format does not include any of the advanced features found in the TIFF JPEG specification or any application specific file format. Nor should it, for the only purpose of this simplified format is to allow the exchange of JPEG compressed images. JPEG File Interchange Format features • Uses JPEG compression • Uses JPEG interchange format compressed image representation • PC or Mac or Unix workstation compatible • Standard color space: one or three components. For three components, YCbCr (CCIR 601-256 levels) • APP0 marker used to specify Units, X pixel density, Y pixel density, thumbnail • APP0 marker also used to specify JFIF extensions • APP0 marker also used to specify application-specific information JPEG Compression Although any JPEG process is supported by the syntax of the JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF) it is strongly recommended that the JPEG baseline process be used for the purposes of file interchange. This ensures maximum compatibility with all applications supporting JPEG. JFIF conforms to the JPEG Draft International Standard (ISO DIS 10918-1). The JPEG File Interchange Format is entirely compatible with the standard JPEG interchange format; the only additional requirement is the mandatory presence of the APP0 marker right after the SOI marker.

  • JPEG-Resistant Adversarial Images
    JPEG-resistant Adversarial Images Richard Shin Dawn Song Computer Science Division Computer Science Division University of California, Berkeley University of California, Berkeley [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Several papers have explored the use of JPEG compression as a defense against adversarial images [3, 2, 5]. In this work, we show that we can generate adversarial images which survive JPEG compression, by including a differentiable approxima- tion to JPEG in the target model. By ensembling multiple target models employing varying levels of compression, we generate adversarial images with up to 691× greater success rate than the baseline method on a model using JPEG as defense. 1 Introduction Image classification models has been a highly-studied domain for adversarial examples. While adversarial images generated against these models are nevertheless very close to the original image according to L1 or L2 norm, unnatural high-frequency components or random-looking dot patterns are sometimes noticeable. As such, some proposed defenses to adversarial examples involve an initial input transformation step which attempts to remove such unnatural-looking additions. In particular, several papers [3, 2, 5] have proposed and evaluated JPEG compression as a potential method for preventing adversarial images. To summarize, they compress and then decompress an image using JPEG before providing it to the image classification model. Since JPEG is a lossy image compression method designed to preferentially preserve details important to the human visual system, the hope is that JPEG compression will keep the aspects of the image important for classification, but discard any adversarial perturbations. The method is appealingly simple and, according to the previous work, can reduce the attack success rate of adversarial examples.

  • Using Graphics on the Web Keep Graphics Small Most Users Have Little Patience for Slow Loading Pages, and Will Rapidly Abandon a Slow Site
    Using graphics on the web Keep graphics small Most users have little patience for slow loading pages, and will rapidly abandon a slow site. Remember that many of your audience will be using a dial up modem, and try to keep graphics file sizes under 40K. Be willing to sacrifice some image quality. Provide thumbnails for large graphics If you feel your site absolutely requires large graphics, to illustrate an experimental set-up for example, provide an in-line reduced thumbnail of the graphic on your main page, which will link to the larger graphic and a separate page. This way the user has a choice and can decide if she or he wants to view it then, at another time or at all. It's also a kindness to indicate the file size, so the user can estimate how long the display will take to load. Use the same motifs throughout your site Recycle graphics (icons, navigation bars), as they are cached locally once downloaded. Standardizing on a set of graphic arrows, bullets, logos etc. also provides your site with a characteristic "look and feel" that your audience can identify with. Provide alternative text for non-graphics browsers Use the [alt="" ] command to provide a text description for those with text-only browsers or those who may have graphics loading disabled on their browsers. This also follows guidelines for Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Compliance. Use the appropriate file format Graphics Interchange format - GIF - was originally developed for the rapid transfer of images. GIF compression works by encoding the identical repeating elements within any given graphic, storing the code in an attached table and using the data to display the image when called upon by the web browser.

YOUNAS, M. FURQAN, M. M. BOKHARI Department of Computer Systems Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology, Peshawar Received 12thJune 2014 and Revised 8th September 2015 Abstract: JPEG 2000 is the most widely used standard for still image coding. Some other well-known image coding techniques include JPEG, JPEG XR and WEBP. This paper provides performance evaluation of JPEG 2000 with reference to other image coding standards, such as JPEG, JPEG XR and WEBP. For the performance evaluation of JPEG 2000 with reference to JPEG, JPEG XR and WebP, we considered divers image coding scenarios such as continuous tome images, grey scale images, High Definition (HD) images, true color images and web images. Each of the considered algorithms are briefly explained followed by their performance evaluation using different quality metrics, such as Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Mean Square Error (MSE), Structure Similarity Index (SSIM), Bits Per Pixel (BPP), Compression Ratio (CR) and Encoding/ Decoding Complexity. The results obtained showed that choice of the each algorithm depends upon the imaging scenario and it was found that JPEG 2000 supports the widest set of features among the evaluated standards and better performance. Keywords: Analysis, Standards JPEG 2000. performance analysis, followed by Section 6 with 1.

  • Understanding Image Formats and When to Use Them
    Understanding Image Formats And When to Use Them Are you familiar with the extensions after your images? There are so many image formats that it’s so easy to get confused! File extensions like .jpeg, .bmp, .gif, and more can be seen after an image’s file name. Most of us disregard it, thinking there is no significance regarding these image formats. These are all different and not cross‐ compatible. These image formats have their own pros and cons. They were created for specific, yet different purposes. What’s the difference, and when is each format appropriate to use? Every graphic you see online is an image file. Most everything you see printed on paper, plastic or a t‐shirt came from an image file. These files come in a variety of formats, and each is optimized for a specific use. Using the right type for the right job means your design will come out picture perfect and just how you intended. The wrong format could mean a bad print or a poor web image, a giant download or a missing graphic in an email Most image files fit into one of two general categories—raster files and vector files—and each category has its own specific uses. This breakdown isn’t perfect. For example, certain formats can actually contain elements of both types. But this is a good place to start when thinking about which format to use for your projects. Raster Images Raster images are made up of a set grid of dots called pixels where each pixel is assigned a color.
