The JPEG compression scheme is divided into the following stages:
1. Transform the image into an optimal color space.
2. Adjust Aspect Ratio 16:9
3. Digitization Scheme 4:2:0.
4. Apply a Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to blocks of pixels, thus removing redundant image data.
5. Quantize each block of DCT coefficients using weighting functions optimized for the human eye.
6. Encode the resulting coefficients (image data) using a Huffman variable word-length algorithm to remove redundancies in the coefficients.
7. Byte Stuffing.
8. Header JFIF
9. JPG Data Store
