This all sounds like standard jpeg compression. Is it just jpeg with extra channels?
Yeah, it compresses better too though, and jpeg XL can be configured to compress lossless, which I imagine would also work here
Lossless JPEG would be amazing.
JPEG 2000 supports lossless mode.
In my experience, as you increase the quality level of a jpeg, the compression level drops significantly, much more than with some other formats, notably PNG. I'd be curious to see comparisons with png and gif. I wouldn't be surprised if the new jpeg compresses better at some resolutions, but not all, or with only some kind of images.
jpeg xl has been in development from FLIF for like 15 years there are tons of comparisons all over, even live ones on youtube
There is Lossless JPEG since 1993.
Kind of, but JPEG converts image data to its own internal 3 came channel colour space before applying DCT. It is not compressing the R, G and B channels of most images. So a multichannel compression is not just compressing each channel separately.
Yeah, jpeg converts to lab (or something similar, I think). But the dimensions are the same: one channel for lightness, and then a number of channels one less than the total number of sampled frequencies to capture the rest of the color space.
