Compression is an important topic in computer science which is allowing us to store a larger amount of data on our data storage. There are several techniques to compress files. In this essay, we will describe the most important algorithm to compress images, which is JPEG, and we will compare it to another method, in order to provide solid arguments as to why JPEG should not be used for images. The most known encoding technique to compress texts is the Human Encoding, which will be explained in detail. We will illustrate the way in which we are able to use a method of compressing texts for compressing images and explaining in detail the method and reasoning behind choosing a particular format for the images rather than any other formats.The Re-Pair algorithm is the method studied and analysed in this essay.This algorithm was used solely for compressing grammatical contents. At the end of this essay we shall prove that using this method will give the best results.
