Fractal-Based Image Compression, II

Abstract

This technical report comprises a short review of the theory of Iterated Function Systems (IFSs), and a discussion of Recurrent Iterated Function Systems (RIFSs) - an extension of IFS codes which allows for encoding of a far wider set of digital images. The method and a demonstration of a RIFS- based scheme for automatic compression of images composed of contours is also presented. Finally, a short discussion and a few examples of how these concepts can be used to automatically compress grey scale images is given. Keywords: Grey scale images, Data compression.
