چکیده

Fractal image compression gives some desirable properties like resolution independence, fast decoding, and very competitive rate-distortion curves. But still suffers from a (sometimes very) high encoding time, depending on the approach being used. This paper presents a method to reduce the encoding time of this technique by reducing the size of the domain pool based on the Entropy value of each domain block. Experimental results on standard images show that the proposed method yields superior performance over conventional fractal encoding.

Robust and Efficient ‘RGB’ based Fractal Image Compression: Flower Pollination based Optimization

Fractal image compression uses the property of selfsimilarity in an image and utilizes the partitioned iterated function system to encode it. Fractal image compression is attractive because of high compression ratio, fast decompression and multi-resolution properties. The main drawback of Fractal Image Compression is the high computational cost and is the poor retrieved image qualities. To over...

Entropy Based Lossless Fractal Image Compression using Irregular Rectangular Partitions

Entropy of an image can be taken as a parameter of variation among pixel values. Equal value for all pixels in an image results in zero entropy. This idea is incorporated at the time of partitioning the image. Partitions are done with zero entropy in order to make the compression lossless. Unlike traditional fractal image compression mechanism this method doesn’t require two separate partitions...

Image Retrieval Method Based on Entropy and Fractal Coding

In content-based image retrieval system, describing and extracting image’s feature is a key question. An image can be characterized by its fractal codes, and fractal codes can be used as the image’s feature to retrieve the images effectively. This paper proposes a novel image retrieval method using information entropy and fractal coding. First, each image in the database is classified by comput...

An Improved Fast Fractal Image Compression Coding Method

The main purpose of image compression is to use as many bits as possible to represent the source image by eliminating the image redundancy with acceptable restoration. Fractal image compression coding has achieved good results in the field of image compression due to its high compression ratio, fast decoding speed as well as independency between decoding image and resolution. However, there is ...
