video compression
compressed video
{Compression} of sequences of images. Video compression
{algorithms} use the fact that there are usually only small
changes from one "frame" to the next so they only need to
encode the starting frame and a sequence of differences
between frames. This is known as "inter-frame coding" or "3D
coding".
{MPEG} is a committee producing {standards} in this area and
also the name of their standard {algorithm}. {H.261} is
another standard.
