چکیده

Although Fractal image compression has high quality at high compression ratio, it needs a lot of encoding time so that it has not been widely applied as other coding schemes in the field of image compression. In this paper, an algorithm is devised to improve this drawback. We utilize mean and variance to classify image blocks and combine the transformation reduction techniques to decrease the encoding time. The experimental result shows that our proposed method makes the encoder about 480 times faster than the conventional fractal compression method and the quality is imperceptible to that of the conventional fractal encoding algorithm while decreasing the bit rate as well.

Speeding-Up Fractal Image Compression by Using Classification Range Blocks

In fractal compression technique, an image is partitioned into sub blocks called range blocks, each of which is encoded by matching it (after an appropriate affine transformation) with a block chosen from a large pool of domain blocks, which is constructed from the image itself. The problem is that the encoding is very time consuming because of the need to search in a very large domain pool. Ou...

Fractal image denoising

Over the past decade, there has been significant interest in fractal coding for the purpose of image compression. However, applications of fractal-based coding to other aspects of image processing have received little attention. We propose a fractal-based method to enhance and restore a noisy image. If the noisy image is simply fractally coded, a significant amount of the noise is suppressed. H...
