High Speed ECG Image Compression Using Modified SPIHT

Color Image Compression using SPIHT Algorithm

In recent years there has been an astronomical increase in the usage of computers for a variety of tasks. With the advent of digital cameras, one of the most common uses has been the storage, manipulation, and transfer of digital images. The files that comprise these images, however, can be quite large and can quickly take up precious memory space on the computer’s hard drive. In multimedia app...

Wavelet Compression of ECG Signals Using SPIHT Algorithm

In this paper we present a novel approach for wavelet compression of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals based on the set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) coding algorithm. SPIHT algorithm has achieved prominent success in image compression. Here we use a modified version of SPIHT for one dimensional signals. We applied wavelet transform with SPIHT coding algorithm on different records of...

Performance Analysis of ECG Signal Compression using SPIHT

In this paper, we analyze the performance of electrocardiogram (ECG) signal compression by comparing original and reconstructed signal on two problems. First, automatic sleep stage classification based on ECG signal; second, arrhythmia classification. An effective ECG signal compression method based on two-dimensional wavelet transform which employs set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT...

Coefficient Statistic Based Modified SPIHT Image Compression Algorithm

Among all wavelet transform and zero-tree quantization based image coding algorithms, set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) is well known for its simplicity and efficiency. But theoretical analysis and experimental results have shown there are still some key points need to be further improved. This paper proposes a coefficient Statistic based Modified SPIHT Lossless Image Compression A...
