Improved Lossy Compression of Deep Space Images via Genetic Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
Most of the images transmitted from deep space probes to Earth are subject to lossy compression. Recent NASA missions have used the ICER progressive wavelet image compressor to achieve state-of-the-art compression performance. The purpose of the research described in this paper was to demonstrate that it is possible to evolve wavelet and scaling numbers describing novel transforms that outperform the most commonly used ICER wavelet for lossy compression of deep space images. Keywords-image compression; wavelets; genetic algorithms

State-of-the-art lossy compression of Martian images via the CMA-ES evolution strategy
The research described in this paper uses the CMAES evolution strategy to optimize matched forward and inverse transform pairs for the compression and reconstruction of images transmitted from Mars rovers under conditions subject to quantization error. Our best transforms outperform both the integer and floating-point implementations of the 2/6 wavelet, substantially reducing error in reconstru...

Compression can be done by lossy or lossless methods. The lossy methods have been used more widely than the lossless compression. Although, many methods for image compression have been proposed yet, the methods using intelligent skipping proper to the visual models has not been considered in the literature. Image inpainting refers to the application of sophisticated algorithms to replace lost o...
متن کاملClassification of Compressed Mammogram Image Using Improved Watershed Transform
A mammogram image segmentation and compression technique is proposed for classifying and storing information about breast cancer tissue. Initially a preprocessing is done in the mammogram images with Contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE). The features are extracted from the images. Then improved watershed transform is applied to the images for segmentation. Genetic training i...
متن کاملLossless and Lossy Data Compression
Data compression (or source coding) is the process of creating binary representations of data which require less storage space than the original data 7; 14; 15]. Lossless compression is used where perfect reproduction is required while lossy compression is used where perfect reproduction is not possible or requires too many bits. Achieving optimal compression with respect to resource constraint...
متن کاملLossless Compression of Fluoroscopy Medical Images Using Correlation
Medical institutions generate an enormous amount of medical images for examinations such as fluoroscopy, where each examination of a patient consists of a collection of images. This takes up a large amount of valuable storage space, in addition to the amount of time and cost incurred during transmission. Although lossy compression provides for better compression, lossless compression is usually...
