<div>Lossy image compression is ubiquitously used for</div><div>storage and transmission at lower rates. Among the existing</div><div>lossy image compression methods, the JPEG standard is the most widely used technique in the multimedia world. Over the years, numerous methods have been proposed to suppress the compression artifacts introduced in JPEG-compressed images.
