Abstract

With the growth of modern digital technologies, demand for transmission multimedia and digital images, which require more storage space and transmission bandwidth, has been increased rapidly. Hence, developing new image compression techniques for reducing data size without degrading the quality of the image, has gained a lot of interest recently. In this study, an adaptive multiresolution image decomposition (AMID) algorithm is proposed and its application for image compression is explored. The developed algorithm is capable of decomposing an image along the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions using the pyramidal multiresolution scheme. Compared to the wavelet transform, the AMID can be used for decimation with the guarantees of perfect signal reconstruction. Furthermore, the application of the AMID for image compression is explored and its performance is compared with the state-of-the-art image compression techniques. The performance of compression method is evaluated using peak signal-to-noise ratio and compression ratio. Experimental results have shown promising performance compared with the results of using other image compression approaches.
