✦ Synopsis

We are concerned with the fractal approximation of multidimensional functions in L. In particular, we treat a position-dependent approximation using orthogonal bases of L and no search. We describe a framework that establishes a connection between the classic orthogonal approximation and the fractal approximation. The main theorem allows easy and univocal computation of the parameters of the approximating function. From the computational perspective, the result avoids to solve ill-conditioned linear systems that are usually needed in former fractal approximation techniques. Additionally, using orthogonal bases the most compact representation of the approximation is obtained. We discuss the approximation of gray-scale digital images as a direct application of our approximation scheme.

Fractal image coding is an effective method to eliminate the image redundancy through piecewise self-transformability. The fractal code consists of a set of contractive affine transforms. To improve the performance when a range block experiences large error, we usually partition the range block into
