Abstract
The present disclosure discloses method and apparatus for lossless image compression, and relates to the field of computer technologies. The method includes: removing ancillary information and redundant information from a picture having a predefined format in a preset manner; decompressing the picture to restore original picture data of the picture; and setting a compression parameter for the original picture data of the picture and compressing the original picture data of the picture into a picture having the same format before the picture decompression using the compression parameter. According to the present disclosure, ancillary data and redundant data in a picture are removed, and after decompression is performed on the picture, the picture is compressed again according to a preset compression parameter, so that based on lossless compression, a compression rate of the picture is increased, and storage space is saved.
