-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2016-7e7c7dba98 2016-10-26 22:28:16.088966 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : CharLS Product : Fedora EPEL 6 Version : 1.0 Release : 5.el6 URL : http://charls.codeplex.com/ Summary : An optimized implementation of the JPEG-LS standard Description : An optimized implementation of the JPEG-LS standard for loss less and near loss less image compression. JPEG-LS is a low-complexity standard that matches JPEG 2000 compression ratios. In terms of speed, CharLS outperforms open source and commercial JPEG LS implementations.
JPEG-LS (ISO-14495-1/ITU-T.87) is a standard derived from the Hewlett Packard LOCO algorithm. JPEG LS has low complexity (meaning fast compression) and high compression ratios, similar to JPEG 2000. JPEG-LS is more similar to the old loss less JPEG than to JPEG 2000, but interestingly the two different techniques result in vastly different performance characteristics.
