Baseline vs. progressive JPEGs JPEG格式有一个特殊的变种，名为“高级JPEG”。在创建高级JPEG文件时，数据是这样安排的：在装入图像时，开始只显示一个模糊的图像，随着数据的装入，图像逐步变得清晰。它相当于交织的GIF格式的图片。高级JPEG主要是考虑到使用调制解调器的慢速网络而设计的，快速网络的使用者通常不会体会到它和正常JPEG格式图片的区别。 本文来自: 中科软件园() 详细出处参考：/whatis/sort03164/240204.html Baseline are the “normal” JPEGs, the type of JPEG that all image programs write by default. The browsers load them top-to-bottom as more of the image information comes down the wire. Loading a baseline JPEG, click to enlarge Progressive JPEGs are another type of JPEGs, they are rendered, as the name suggests, progressively. First you see a low quality version of the whole image. Then, as more of the image information arrives over the network, the quality gradually improves. Loading a progressive JPEG, click to enlarge From usability perspective, progressive is usually good, because the user gets feedback that something is going on. Also if you’re on a slow connection, progressive JPEG is preferable because you don’t need to wait for the whole image to arrive in order to get an idea if it is what you wanted. If not, you can click away from the page or hit the back button, without waiting for the (potentially large) high quality image. A reason against progressive JPEGs I’ve heard is that they look a bit old school and that users might be underimpressed, if not irritated, by the progressive rendering. I am not aware of a user study that focuses on this issue, please comment if you have heard or conducted such a experiment. There is controversial information in blogs and books whether progressive JPEGs are bigger or smaller than the baseline JPEGs in terms of file size. So, as part of the never-ending quest for smaler file sizes and lossless optimization, here is an experiment that attempts to answer this question. The experiment One of the many free APIs that Yahoo! provides is the image search API. I used it to find images that match a number of queries, such as “kittens”, “puppies”, “monkeys”, “baby”, “flower”, “sunset”..
