Hierarchical JPEG Encoder/Decoder

Question

Does anyone knows of any implementation of the hierarchical JPEG mode (ITU T.81) ? I am not talking about progressive mode (or sequential), I really mean the hierarchical mode.

Answer 1

After some googling, I finally found out:

• https://github.com/thorfdbg/libjpeg

Which was referenced from:

• http://calendar.perfplanet.com/2012/progressive-jpegs-a-new-best-practice/

This seems by far the more advanced option. Some other results showed:

And some explanations from:
