β¦ Synopsis
The hierarchical IFS coding proposed by the authors is applied to monochrome images. The present method is a fusion of the hierarchical procedure and fractal coding based on the iterated function system (IFS) theory. By using a hierarchical structure based on the Gaussian pyramid, the image is divided into frequency subbands so that the information is compressed. By using the information between the bands, the coding can effectively capture the similarity between the range and the domain. Further, an application of this method to color images is discussed.

Picture encoding methods based on the iterated function system (IFS) have been reported. However, they are designed for still pictures and few reports have been made for moving pictures. This paper proposes a coding method for moving pictures based on the recurrent iterated function system (RIFS). I
The combination of subband coding and vector quantization can provide a powerful and flexible method for compressing color images, since this type of system can easily incorporate properties of the human visual system (HVS). Most of the previous work in image compression using subband coding has fil
The international standard coding scheme for continuous-tone still images, JPEG, is not suitable for images that include characters and multicolor areas. When such images are encoded with joint photographic experts group (JPEG), the quality of the decoded images is heavily degraded. A hybrid coding
