Abstract

In this paper, a fractal image coding based on discrete wavelet transform is proposed to improve PSNR at low bit rates and reduce computational complexity of encoding process. The proposed method takes the absolute value of discrete wavelet transform coefficients, and then constructs significant coefficients trees, which indicate the positions and signs of the significant coefficients. This method improves PSNR and reduces computational complexity of mapping contracted domain pool onto range block, by matching only the significant coefficients of range block to coefficients of contracted domain block. Also, this paper proposes a classification scheme which minimizes the number of contracted domain blocks compared with range block. This scheme significantly reduces the number of range and contracted domain block comparison.
