Description/Outcomes Modern technologies require processing of larger and larger amount of data while on the other hand smaller and smaller devices appear. These two contradictory requirements lead to increasing importance of data compression. Also, visual information plays an important role in almost all areas of our life. Today, much of this information is represented and processed digitally. Digital image processing is ubiquitous, with applications ranging from television to tomography, from photography to printing, from robotics to remote sensing. The course presents principles of data compression. The basic data compression methods are presented followed by most popular and frequently used compression algorithms. It also introduces thernfundamentals of digital image processing.rn
