The Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group (JBIG) is a group of experts nominated by national standards bodies and major companies to work to produce standards for bi-level image coding. The 'joint' refers to its status as a committee working on both ISO and ITU-T standards. It is one of two sub-groups of ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1, Subcommittee 29, Working Group 1 (ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 29/WG 1), which official title is Coding of still pictures.[1][2][3]

The Joint Bi-level Image Experts Group created the JBIG and JBIG2 standards.[4] JBIG was approved in 1993 as was published as ISO/IEC 11544 and ITU-T Recommendations T.82, T.85. JBIG2 was approved in 2000 and was published as ISO/IEC 14492 and ITU-T Recommendations T.88, T.89. See the main article Joint Photographic Experts Group#Published Standards.

ISO/IEC JTC1 SC29 Working Group 1 is responsible for both JPEG and JBIG standards.[4] It includes both Joint Photographic Experts Group and Joint Bi-level Image experts Group.[4]
