Abstract
Nowadays, the development of technology which involves multimedia data is widely used to help better understanding in spreading information. Image is known as 2D signal which contain huge data especially a high resolution image. This paper shows the comparison of applying lossy and lossless compression on the image data. Image compression is necessary in reducing the size of image for storage or transmission purpose to support most of the application nowadays. The technique applied in this paper is the hybrid of Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) technique and Huffman coding technique which are classified as lossy and lossless compression, respectively. The performance of image compression are evaluated in terms of compression ratio, Mean Square Error (MSE), Power Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) and computing time. Several types of evaluation can determine better technique to apply on specific type of application. The stand-alone of each DWT and Huffman technique are evaluated before applying hybrid of DWT and Huffman technique. After conducting a comprehensive observation, the hybrid technique can compress with ratio about 1:17 to 1:27 due to the support from DWT technique that apply filter concept. The MSE value is high with the average about 69 which contributes to low PSNR value with about 29 to 30 dB due to the relation of PSNR equation with MSE value. Besides, the SSIM value is 0.6 or about 40% far from the original image that affect the output image. Despite of that, the computing time is fast with about 3 to 4 seconds which has been improved from stand-alone Huffman technique. Therefore, hybrid compression is capable of supporting each other techniques in stand-alone technique.
