Questions and Answers

What is the primary reason for the effectiveness of the DCT transform coding method in JPEG?

The ability of humans to notice high spatial frequency components
The visual acuity in distinguishing closely spaced lines
The high accuracy in distinguishing gray and chroma
The spatial redundancy in images due to slowly changing content (correct)

What is the result of reducing high spatial frequency contents in an image?

Increased accuracy in distinguishing closely spaced lines
Improved visual acuity in distinguishing gray and chroma
Reduced spatial redundancy (correct)
Increased spatial redundancy

What is the purpose of chroma subsampling in JPEG?

To improve the visual acuity in distinguishing gray and chroma
To reduce the amount of data required to store an image (correct)
To reduce the spatial redundancy in an image
To increase the accuracy in distinguishing closely spaced lines
