Generation loss: Art & Technology

Generation loss is the loss of quality between subsequent copies or transcodes of data. Compression, as well as up-scaling (with images) or up-sampling (with sound and other recordings) are common causes of generation loss. The introduction of compression artifacts may increase the entropy of the data through each generation. Other causes include signal…
