Coding of Still Pictures

Adaptive Fractal Coding of Still Pictures

This paper presents a method for lossy coding of still pictures using the theory of iterated function systems (IFS) which is a standard description for deterministic fractals. The coding concept is based on a blockwise fractal approximation of the original image by contraction mappings of itself using affine transformations which are a special case of IFSs. Data reduction is achieved by exploit...

Visual Data Compression for Multimedia Applications

In this paper, the compression of visual information in the framework of multimedia applications is discussed. To this end, major approaches to compress still as well as moving pictures are reviewed. The most important objective in any compression algorithm is that of compression efficiency. High-compression coding of still pictures can be split into three categories: waveform, second-generatio...
