how to convert RGB image into YCuCv model by using reversible colour transform ?

I need to perform the above asked method in my project.

But in one of project pdf's I studied that RGB to YCbCr transform may be the most frequently used one for the lossy compression of colour image .But I need to perform it for lossless compression.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_2000#Color_components_transformation
I = imread('peppers.png');
R = I(:,:,1); G = I(:,:,2); B = I(:,:,3);
Y = floor((R + 2*G + B)/4);
Cb = B - G;
Cr = R - G;

i need to convert RGB into YCuCv but not YCbCr, now would you please explain how to do this?
You probably mean Yuv. This term is used interchangeably with YCbCr for digital images; see my response to your other question.
i need to convert rgb into YCuCv by using Reversible color transform,so kindly give me the answer with explanation.
But in one of project pdf's I studied that RGB to YCbCr transform [7] may be the most frequently used one for the lossy compression of colour image .But I need to perform it for lossless compression.
Reversible color tranformation means lossless here. Please check the link I provided to see how to convert back to RGB.
Just use imwrite() to create a PNG file. I don't know what it does internally, but it's the lossless compression method that is the most commonly used.
