Virtually Lossless Compression of Astrophysical Images

Virtually Lossless Compression of Astrophysical Images

<p/> <p>We describe an image compression strategy potentially capable of preserving the scientific quality of astrophysical data, simultaneously allowing a consistent bandwidth reduction to be achieved. Unlike strictly <it>lossless</it> techniques, by which moderate compressi...
