Abstract / scope
The scope of JPEG DNA is the creation of a standard for efficient coding of images that considers biochemical constraints and offers robustness to noise introduced by the different stages of the storage process that is based on DNA synthetic polymers. JPEG DNA is a multipart standard. Part 1, JPEG DNA Core Coding System, defines the syntax and an accompanying decompression process that is capable of representing bi-level, continuous-tone grey-scale, continuous-tone colour, or multichannel digital samples in a format representing nucleotide sequences for supporting DNA storage.
