Application of Hybrid Wavelet-Fractal Compression algorithm for Radiographic Images of Weld Defects

چکیده
Based on the standard fractal transformation in spatial domain, simple relations may be found relating coefficients in detail subbands in the wavelet domain. In this work we evaluate a hybrid wavelet-fractal image coder, and we test its ability to compress radiographic images of weld defects. A comparative study between the hybrid coder and standard fractal compression technique have been made in order to investigate the compression ratio and corresponding quality of the image using peak signal to noise ratio. Numerical experiments using radiographic images of weld defects illustrate the superior performance of the hybrid coder compared to standard fractal algorithm.

Optimization of Energy Consumption in Image Transmission in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) using a Hybrid Method
In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), sensor nodes have limited resources with regard to computation, storage, communication bandwidth, and the most important of all, energy supply. In addition, in many applications of sensor networks, we need to send images to a sink node. Therefore, we have to use methods for sending images in which the number and volume of packets are optim...
