Wavelet Based Image Compression Using SPIHT Algorithm: Abstract
Abstract:
In this wor we have st!died well nown state o" the art image compression algorithms# These codecs are $ased on wavelet trans"orms in most cases# Their compression e""iciency "or e#g on image compression is widely ac nowledged# The already !sed %P&'())) standard* e#g#* will $e $ased on wavelet trans"orms too# We present the well nown algorithm o" Pearlman Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees SPIHT to restrict the necessity o" random access to the whole image to a small s!$ images only# The main idea is $ased on partitioning o" sets* which consists o" coe""icients or representatives o" whole s!$ trees# The decoder d!plicates the e+ec!tion path o" the encoder to ens!re this $ehavior* the coder sends the res!lt o" a $inary decision to the decoder $e"ore a $ranch is ta en in the algorithm# Th!s* all decisions o" the decoder are $ased on the received $its#The name o" the algorithm is composed o" the words set and partitioning. The compression per"ormance is meas!red with pea $e implemented thro!gh ,AT-AB# signal to noise ratio
compared to the original codec remains still the same or nearly the same# This code can
