A non uniform segmentation optimal hybrid fractal/DCT image compression algorithm. Melnikov, G. & Katsaggelos, A. In Proceedings of the 1998 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing, ICASSP '98 (Cat. No.98CH36181), volume 5, pages 2573–2576, 1998. IEEE.
A non uniform segmentation optimal hybrid fractal/DCT image compression algorithm [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
In this paper a hybrid fractal and discrete cosine transform (DCT) coder is developed. Drawing on the ability of DCT to remove inter-pixel redundancies and on the ability of fractal transforms to capitalize on long-range correlations in the image, the hybrid coder performs an optimal, in the rate-distortion sense, bit allocation among coding parameters. An orthogonal basis framework is used within which an image segmentation and a hybrid block-based transform are selected jointly. A Lagrangian multiplier approach is used to optimize the hybrid parameters and the segmentation. Differential encoding of the DC coefficient is employed, with the scanning path based on a 3rd-order Hilbert curve. Simulation results show a significant improvement in quality with respect to the JPEG standard. © 1998 IEEE.
