Select two answers.
A. the museum can choose a heuristic approach which will achieve a lossless compression, but they cannot be sure that it is the most efficient compression for each image.
B. the museum can choose a heuristic approach which will achieve lossless compression for most digital representations
C. algorithms for lossless compression exist, so the museum can use those to compress the image
D. the museum should not compress digital representations of art, as there is always a danger that the compression is actual lossy
