Fractal Image Coding a New Approach with Chain Codes

Fractal image coding, the traditional approaches which are being used currently, based on dividing the images into blocks. These blocks are known as range blocks and domain blocks. In these approaches after coding the image generally the decoding process is slow as extensive searching is required .In this paper we are going to present a scheme which uses the concept of chain codes through which same type of section of image located in whole image is selected and we will keep them in our memory for further use. Through this proposed scheme coding and decoding can be speed-up.
