Lossy compression
A scheme that, after decompression, does not produce exactly the same data that was given to the compressor. Due to the nature of image data, the losses are often imperceptible to the human eye. Although image quality may suffer, many experts believe that up to 95 percent of the data in a typical image may be discarded without a noticeable loss in apparent resolution.
