Evaluation of Lossless Compression Methods for Gray Scale Document Images
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, a comparative study of lossless compression algorithms is presented. The following algorithms are considered: UNIX compress, gzip, LZW, CCITT Group 3 and Group 4, JBIG, old lossless JPEG, JPEG-LS based on LOCO, CALIC, FELICS, S+P Transform, and PNG. In cases where the algorithm under consideration may only be applied to binary data, the bitplanes of the gray scale image are separated, with and without Gray encoding, and the compression is applied to individual bit planes. Testing is done using a set of document images obtained by gray scale scanning of prints of the eight standard CCITT images and a set of nine gray scale pictorial images. The results show that the highest compression is obtained using the CALIC and JPEG-LS algorithms.

Multi-layer context tree modeling for lossless compression of gray-scale images
Multi-layer context tree (MCT) modeling has been recently applied for lossless compression of multi-layer map images and showed its efficiency. Though it is not applicable directly to compression of gray-scale images, it could be utilized together with bit-plane separation technique. In this work we evaluated the performance of MCT modeling according to three bit-plane separation methods and co...
متن کاملLossless Microarray Image Compression by Hardware Array Compactor
Microarray technology is a new and powerful tool for concurrent monitoring of large number of genes expressions. Each microarray experiment produces hundreds of images. Each digital image requires a large storage space. Hence, real-time processing of these images and transmission of them necessitates efficient and custom-made lossless compression schemes. In this paper, we offer a new archi...
متن کاملProgressive Lossless Image Compression Using Image Decomposition and Context Quantization
Lossless image compression has many applications, for example, in medical imaging, space photograph and film industry. In this thesis, we propose an efficient lossless image compression scheme for both binary images and gray-scale images. The scheme first decomposes images into a set of progressively refined binary sequences and then uses the context-based, adaptive arithmetic coding algorithm ...
