What are the characteristics of data streams (i.e., the type of data) that are used in lossy compression techniques?
What will be an ideal response?
The data streams must be able to suffer a loss of information without unacceptable degradation. This is
characteristic of audio and visual information. For example, when music is encoded by the MP3 algorithm and
later decoded, some information is lost. An older person with high?frequency hearing loss using normal
headphones may notice little difference between the original and played back music. A person with acute
hearing using studio quality headphones might well be aware of the difference.
