The listed technologies are encoding formats, but they are not file formats. I don't see a reason to talk about DCTs here; there is a DCT in JPEG, but it is not the only thing in JPEG. JPEG is not a type of DCT.

'''Exchangeable image file format''' (officially '''Exif''', according to JEIDA/JEITA/CIPA specifications) is a standard that specifies the [[file format|formats]] for [[image]]s, [[sound]], and ancillary tags used by [[digital camera]]s (including [[smartphone]]s), [[Image scanner|scanners]] and other systems handling image and sound files recorded by digital cameras. The specification uses the following existing fileencoding formats with the addition of specific [[Metadata (computing)|metadata]] tags: [[JPEG]] [[discretelossy cosine transform]] (DCT)<ref>{{Citation |first1=N. |last1=Ahmed |author1-link=N.
