Data Compression for Digital Color Electrophotographic Printer with Evolvable Hardware
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a data compression system using Evolvable Hardware (EHW) for digital color electrophotographic (EP) printers. EP printing is an important technology within digital printing, which is currently having a significant impact on the printing and publishing industry. Although, it requires data-compression to reduce the cost for transferring and storing large EP images, traditional techniques can not handle this data-compression well. This paper explains how EHW can be used as a compression system. EHW can change the compression method according to the characteristics of the image. The proposed EHW-based compression system can compress approximately twice as much data as JBIG, the current international standard.

متن کاملReal-world applications of analog and digital evolvable hardware
In contrast to conventional hardware where the structure is irreversibly fixed in the design process, evolvable hardware (EHW) is designed to adapt to changes in task requirements or changes in the environment, through its ability to reconfigure its own hardware structure dynamically and autonomously. This capacity for adaptation, achieved by employing efficient search algorithms based on the m...
متن کاملOn-Line Compression of High Precision Printer Images by Evolvable Hardware
This paper describes an image compression system based on Evolvable HardWare (EHW) for High Precision Printers (HPP). These printers are especially flexible for book publishing, but require large disk space for images, in particular those of higher resolution. To increase the printing speed and reduce the disk space, the images should be compressed. The system for this compression must be 1) ad...
