Title
Applying binary partitioning to weighted finite automata for image compression
Abstract
Fractal-based image compression techniques give efficient decoding time with primitive hardware requirements, which favors real-time communication purposes. One such technique, the weighted finite automata (WFA) is studied on grayscale images. An improved image partitioning technique-the binary or bintree partitioning-is tested on the WFA encoding method. Experimental results show that binary partitioning consistently gives higher compression ratios than the conventional quadtree partitioning method. Moreover, the ability to decode images progressively rendering finer and finer details can be used to display the image over a congested and loss-prone network such as the image transport protocol (ITP) for the Internet, as well as to pave way for multilayered error protection over an often unreliable networking environment such as the UDP.
