A Novel Scheme for Compression of Cash Images

Abstract

In the field of economy, there are more and more electronic scanning cash images, which need to be compressed in a higher compression ratio. This paper proposes a specific compression algorithm for cash images. First, according to cash image characteristics and standard JPEG (joint photographic experts group) compression, image re-ordering techniques are analyzed, and the method of modifying some blocks into single color blocks is adopted. Then, a suitable quantization table for cash images is obtained. Experimental results show that the method is effective.
