    Fractal compression is the lossy compression technique in the field of gray/color image and video compression. It gives high compression ratio, better image quality with fast decoding time but improvement in encoding time is a challenge. This review paper/article presents the analysis of most significant existing approaches in the field of fractal based gray/color images and video compression, different block matching motion estimation approaches for finding out the motion vectors in a frame based on inter-frame coding and intra-frame coding i.e. individual frame coding and automata theory based coding approaches to represent an image/sequence of images. Though different review papers exist related to fractal coding, this paper is different in many sense. One can develop the new shape pattern for motion estimation and modify the existing block matching motion estimation with automata coding to explore the fractal compression technique with specific focus on reducing the encoding time and achieving better image/video reconstruction quality. This paper is useful for the beginners in the domain of video compression

    Fractal Image Compression FIC as a model was conceptualized in the 1989 In furtherance there are numerous models that has been developed in the process Existence of fractals were initially observed and depicted in the Iterated Function System IFS and the IFS solutions were used for encoding images The process of IFS pertaining to any image constitutes much lesser space for recording than the actual image which has led to the development of representation the image using IFS form and how the image compression systems has taken shape It is very important that the time consumed for encoding has to be addressed for achieving optimal compression conditions and predominantly the inputs that are shared in the solutions proposed in the study depict the fact that despite of certain developments that has taken place still there are potential chances of scope for improvement From the review of exhaustive range of models that are depicted in the model it is evident that over period of time numerous advancements have taken place in the FCI model and is adapted at image compression in varied levels This study focus on the existing range of literature on FCI and the insights of various models has been depicted in this stud

    Optimization of Fractal Image Compression

    Fractal encoding is a promising method of image compression. It is built on the basis of the forms found in the image and the generation of repetitive blocks based on mathematical translations. The technique seems to be moved theoretically and practically, but it requires enormous programming time due to the excessive resources required when compressing large volumes of data. On the other hand, metaheuristics represent all of the methods used to solve difficult optimization problems with less consumption of resources. They are marked by their rapid convergence and their lessening in research difficulties. In this chapter, we have tried to apply a new experience around the performance of organic metaheuristics inspired by nature, which are, respectively, the wolf pack algorithm (WPA) and the bat-inspired algorithm (BIA), as bioinspired techniques to optimize the fractal image compression (FIC). Experiments show the enhancement of diverse characteristics (coding time, compression rate (CR), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and mean square error (MSE)). In addition, an assessment of the proposed approaches via many other approaches highlights this improvement

    The inverse problem of using measurements to estimate unknown parameters of a system often arises in engineering practice and scientific research. This paper proposes a Collage-based parameter inversion framework for a class of partial differential equations. The Collage method is used to convert the parameter estimation inverse problem into a minimization problem of a function of several variables after the partial differential equation is approximated by a differential dynamical system. Then numerical schemes for solving this minimization problem are proposed, including grid approximation and ant colony optimization. The proposed schemes are applied to a parameter estimation problem for the Belousov-Zhabotinskii equation, and the results show that the proposed approximation method is efficient for both linear and nonlinear partial differential equations with respect to unknown parameters. At worst, the presented method provides an excellent starting point for traditional inversion methods that must first select a good starting point

    Full text link
    This paper presents and evaluates four weighting schemes for image interpolation algorithms. The first scheme is based on the normalized area of the circle, whose diameter is equal to the minimum side of a tetragon. The second scheme is based on the normalized area of the circle, whose radius is equal to the hypotenuse. The third scheme is based on the normalized area of the triangle, whose base and height are equal to the hypotenuse and virtual pixel length, respectively. The fourth weighting scheme is based on the normalized area of the circle, whose radius is equal to the virtual pixel length-based hypotenuse. Experiments demonstrated debatable algorithm performances and the need for further research.Comment: 8 pages, 14 figure

    Fractal analysis is becoming more and more common in all walks of life. This includes biomedical engineering, steganography and art. Writing one book on all these topics is a very difficult task. For this reason, this book covers only selected topics. Interested readers will find in this book the topics of image compression, groundwater quality, establishing the downscaling and spatio-temporal scale conversion models of NDVI, modelling and optimization of 3T fractional nonlinear generalized magneto-thermoelastic multi-material, algebraic fractals in steganography, strain induced microstructures in metals and much more. The book will definitely be of interest to scientists dealing with fractal analysis, as well as biomedical engineers or IT engineers. I encourage you to view individual chapters
