DWT Lifting Scheme for Image Compression with Cordic-Enhanced Operation

Abstract

This paper proposes an innovative image compression scheme by utilizing the Adaptive Discrete Wavelet Transform-based Lifting Scheme (ADWT-LS). The most important feature of the proposed DWT lifting method is splitting the low-pass and high-pass filters into upper and lower triangular matrices. It also converts the filter execution into banded matrix multiplications with an innovative lifting factorization presented with fine-tuned parameters. Further, optimal tuning is the most important contribution that is achieved via a new hybrid algorithm known as Lioness-Integrated Whale Optimization Algorithm (LI-WOA). The proposed algorithm hybridizes the concepts of both the Lion Algorithm (LA) and Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA). In addition, innovative cosine evaluation is initiated in this work under the CORDIC algorithm. Also, this paper defines a single objective function that relates multi-constraints like the Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) as well as Compression Ratio (CR). Finally, the performance of the proposed work is compared over other conventional models regarding certain performance measures.
