This document compares the DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) and DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform) image compression techniques. It finds that DWT provides higher compression ratios and avoids blocking artifacts compared to DCT. DWT allows for better localization in both spatial and frequency domains. It also has inherent scaling and better identifies visually relevant data, leading to higher compression ratios. However, DCT is faster than DWT. Experimental results on test images show that DWT achieves higher PSNR and lower MSE and BER than DCT, while providing a slightly higher compression ratio and completing compression more quickly.
A Comparative Study of Image Compression AlgorithmsIJORCS
The document compares three image compression algorithms: Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), and a hybrid DCT-DWT algorithm. DCT is used in JPEG and provides simple hardware implementation but can cause blocking artifacts at high compression. DWT provides multi-resolution decomposition and achieves higher compression ratios but requires more computation. The hybrid algorithm aims to combine the advantages of DCT and DWT by applying DWT followed by DCT, allowing for better performance than either individual method. Experimental results showed the hybrid approach generally had better performance in terms of PSNR, MSE, and compression ratio.

Efficient Image Compression Technique using JPEG2000 with Adaptive ThresholdCSCJournals
Image compression is a technique to reduce the size of image which is helpful for transforms. Due to the limited communication bandwidth we have to need optimum compressed image with good visual quality. Although the JPEG2000 compression technique is ideal for image processing as it uses DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform).But in this paper we proposed fast and efficient image compression scheme using JPEG2000 technique with adaptive subband threshold. Actually we used subband adaptive threshold in decomposition section which gives us more compression ratio and good visual quality other than existing compression techniques. The subband adaptive threshold that concentrates on denoising each subband (except lowest coefficient subbands) by minimizing insignificant coefficients and adapt with modified coefficients which are significant and more responsible for image reconstruction. Finally we use embedded block coding with optimized truncation (EBCOT) entropy coder that gives three different passes which gives more compressed image. This proposed method is compared to other existing approach and give superior result that satisfy the human visual quality and also these resulting compressed images are evaluated by the performance parameter PSNR.
This document discusses wavelet transforms and fast wavelet transforms for image compression. It provides background on discrete wavelet transforms (DWT) and fast wavelet transforms. DWT is useful for image compression because it concentrates image energy into low-frequency coefficients. Compression is achieved by quantizing coefficients, prioritizing low-frequency ones. Popular image compression techniques like JPEG2000 use DWT. Fast wavelet transforms like Mallat's algorithm allow faster image analysis than DWT. The document reviews various image compression techniques and their performance in terms of compression ratio and image quality.

Color image compression based on spatial and magnitude signal decomposition IJECEIAES
In this paper, a simple color image compression system has been proposed using image signal decomposition. Where, the RGB image color band is converted to the less correlated YUV color model and the pixel value (magnitude) in each band is decomposed into 2-values; most and least significant. According to the importance of the most significant value (MSV) that influenced by any simply modification happened, an adaptive lossless image compression system is proposed using bit plane (BP) slicing, delta pulse code modulation (Delta PCM), adaptive quadtree (QT) partitioning followed by an adaptive shift encoder. On the other hand, a lossy compression system is introduced to handle the least significant value (LSV), it is based on an adaptive, error bounded coding system, and it uses the DCT compression scheme. The performance of the developed compression system was analyzed and compared with those attained from the universal standard JPEG, and the results of applying the proposed system indicated its performance is comparable or better than that of the JPEG standards.

The lifting scheme based Discrete Wavelet

implementation of efficient compression technique. This paper
proposes a highly pipelined and distributed VLSI architecture
of lifting based 2D DWT with lifting coefficients represented

In this paper, initially a software model of the proposed design

language and implemented in VIRTEX ® 6 (XC6VHX380T)

REGION OF INTEREST BASED COMPRESSION OF MEDICAL IMAGE USING DISCRETE WAVELET ...ijcsa
Image abbreviation is utilized for reducing the size of a file without demeaning the quality of the image to an objectionable level. The depletion in file size permits more images to be deposited in a given number of spaces. It also minimizes the time necessary for images to be transferred. There are different ways of abbreviating image files. For the use of Internet, the two most common abbreviated graphic image formats are the JPEG formulation and the GIF formulation. The JPEG procedure is more often utilized or
photographs, while the GIF method is commonly used for logos, symbols and icons but at the same time
they are not preferred as they use only 256 colors. Other procedures for image compression include the
utilization of fractals and wavelets. These procedures have not profited widespread acceptance for the
utilization on the Internet. Abbreviating an image is remarkably not similar than the compressing raw
binary data. General-purpose abbreviation techniques can be utilized to compress images, the obtained
result is less than the optimal. This is because of the images have certain analytical properties, which can
be exploited by encoders specifically designed only for them. Also, some of the finer details of the image
can be renounced for the sake of storing a little more bandwidth or deposition space. In the paper,
compression is done on medical image and the compression technique that is used to perform compression
is discrete wavelet transform and discrete cosine transform which compresses the data efficiently without

Hybrid Digital Image Watermarking using Contourlet Transform (CT), DCT and SVDCSCJournals
Role of watermarking is dramatically enhanced due to the emerging technologies like IoT, Data analysis, and automation in many sectors of identity. Due to these many devices are connected through internet and networking and large amounts of data is generated and transmitted. Here security of the data is very much needed. The algorithm used for the watermarking is to be robust against various processes (attacks) such as filtering, compression and cropping etc. To increase the robustness, in the paper a hybrid algorithm is proposed by combining three transforms such as Contourlet, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). Performance of Algorithm is evaluated by using similarity metrics such as NCC, MSE and PSNR.
Multiple Binary Images Watermarking in Spatial and Frequency Domainssipij
Editing, reproduction and distribution of the digital multimedia are becoming extremely easier and faster with the existence of the internet and the availability of pervasive and powerful multimedia tools. Digital watermarking has emerged as a possible method to tackle these issues. This paper proposes a scheme using which more data can be inserted into an image in different domains using different techniques. This increases the embedding capacity. Using the proposed scheme 24 binary images can be embedded in the DCT domain and 12 binary images can be embedded in the spatial domain using LSB substitution technique in a single RGB image. The proposed scheme also provides an extra level of security to the watermark image by scrambling the image before embedding it into the host image. Experimental results show that the proposed watermarking method results in almost invisible difference between the watermarked image and the original image and is also robust against various image processing attacks.

It then reviews the wavelet transform approach and several popular wavelet coding techniques such as EZW, SPIHT, SPECK, EBCOT, WDR, ASWDR, SFQ, EPWIC, CREW, SR and GW coding. These techniques exploit the multi-resolution properties of wavelets for superior energy compaction and compression performance compared to DCT-based methods like JPEG. The document provides details on how each coding scheme works and compares their features.
This document discusses image compression using the discrete cosine transform (DCT). It develops simple Mathematica functions to compute the 1D and 2D DCT. The 1D DCT transforms a list of real numbers into elementary frequency components. It is computed via matrix multiplication or using the discrete Fourier transform with twiddle factors. The 2D DCT applies the 1D DCT to rows and then columns, making it separable. These functions illustrate how Mathematica can be used to prototype image processing algorithms.
Transform coding is used in image and video processing to exploit correlations between neighboring pixels. The discrete cosine transform (DCT) is commonly used as it provides good energy compaction and de-correlation. DCT represents data as a sum of variable frequency cosine waves in the frequency domain. It has properties like separability and orthogonality that make it efficient for computation. DCT exhibits excellent energy compaction and removal of redundancy between pixels, making it useful for image and video compression.
Image compression using singular value decompositionPRADEEP Cheekatla
Singular value decomposition (SVD) can be used to compress images by decomposing images into orthogonal matrices and a diagonal matrix. This decomposition allows images to be approximated using only the first few terms in the decomposition series, reducing memory usage. However, there are limits to the compression rate that can be achieved while still saving memory. The rank of the approximation must be less than mn/(m+n+1) for memory savings, where m and n are the image dimensions. Higher ranks improve quality but also increase memory usage.
Singular Value Decomposition Image CompressionAishwarya K. M.
- SVD image compression works by decomposing an image matrix into three matrices - two orthogonal matrices containing singular vectors and a diagonal matrix containing singular values. The singular values are ordered from highest to lowest.
- Compression is achieved by only keeping the first few singular values, which contain most of the image information, and discarding the smaller values. This approximates the original matrix while reducing storage needs.
- The tradeoff is between compression ratio/file size and image quality - smaller values of k retain fewer singular values and compress more but quality deteriorates, while larger k improves quality at the cost of file size. An optimal k value balances these factors.

Dimensionality reduction: SVD and its applicationsViet-Trung TRAN
SVD (singular value decomposition) is a technique for dimensionality reduction that decomposes a matrix A into three matrices: U, Σ, and V. U and V are orthogonal matrices that represent the left and right singular vectors of A. Σ is a diagonal matrix containing the singular values of A in descending order. SVD can be used to reduce the dimensionality of data by projecting it onto only the first few principal components represented by the top singular vectors in U and V. This provides an interpretation of the data in a lower dimensional space while minimizing reconstruction error.

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF IMAGE COMPRESSION ALGORITHMSKate Campbell
This document compares three image compression algorithms: discrete cosine transform (DCT), discrete wavelet transform (DWT), and a hybrid DCT-DWT technique. It finds that the hybrid technique generally performs better in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio, mean squared error, and compression ratio. The document provides background on each technique and evaluates their performance based on common metrics like PSNR and MSE. It also reviews related work comparing DCT and DWT that found DWT more efficient but slower. The experimental results in this study show that the hybrid DCT-DWT technique provides better performance than either technique individually.
4 ijaems jun-2015-5-hybrid algorithmic approach for medical image compression...INFOGAIN PUBLICATION
As medical imaging facilities move towards complete filmless imaging and also generate a large volume of image data through various advance medical modalities, the ability to store, share and transfer images on a cloud-based system is essential for maximizing efficiencies. The major issue that arises in teleradiology is the difficulty of transmitting large volume of medical data with relatively low bandwidth. Image compression techniques have increased the viability by reducing the bandwidth requirement and cost-effective delivery of medical images for primary diagnosis.Wavelet transformation is widely used in the fields of image compression because they allow analysis of images at various levels of resolution and good characteristics. The algorithm what is discussed in this paper employs wavelet toolbox of MATLAB. Multilevel decomposition of the original image is performed by using Haar wavelet transform and then image is quantified and coded based on Huffman technique. The wavelet packet has been applied for reconstruction of the compressed image. The simulation results show that the algorithm has excellent effects in the image reconstruction and better compression ratio and also study shows that valuable in medical image compression on cloud platform.

1. The document discusses 3D discrete cosine transform (DCT) for image compression. 3D-DCT takes a sequence of frames and divides them into 8x8x8 cubes.
2. Each cube is independently encoded using 3D-DCT, quantization, and entropy encoding. This concentrates information in low frequencies.
3. The technique achieves a compression ratio of around 27 for a set of 8 frames, better than 2D JPEG. By exploiting correlations in both spatial and temporal dimensions, 3D-DCT allows for improved compression over 2D transforms.
Wavelet based Image Coding Schemes: A Recent Survey ijsc
A variety of new and powerful algorithms have been developed for image compression over the years. Among them the wavelet-based image compression schemes have gained much popularity due to their overlapping nature which reduces the blocking artifacts that are common phenomena in JPEG compression and multiresolution character which leads to superior energy compaction with high quality reconstructed images. This paper provides a detailed survey on some of the popular wavelet coding techniques such as the Embedded Zerotree Wavelet (EZW) coding, Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Tree (SPIHT) coding, the Set Partitioned Embedded Block (SPECK) Coder, and the Embedded Block Coding with Optimized Truncation (EBCOT) algorithm. Other wavelet-based coding techniques like the Wavelet Difference Reduction (WDR) and the Adaptive Scanned Wavelet Difference Reduction (ASWDR) algorithms, the Space Frequency Quantization (SFQ) algorithm, the Embedded Predictive Wavelet Image Coder (EPWIC), Compression with Reversible Embedded Wavelet (CREW), the Stack-Run (SR) coding and the recent Geometric Wavelet (GW) coding are also discussed. Based on the review, recommendations and discussions are presented for algorithm development and implementation.
This document summarizes a research paper that analyzed medical image compression using discrete cosine transform (DCT) with entropy encoding and Huffman coding on MRI brain images. The paper implemented DCT to compress images at varying quality levels and block sizes. It also used Huffman encoding to assign shorter bit codes to more frequent symbols. The research tested the algorithms on a set of brain MRI images. Results showed that compression ratio increased with higher quality levels, while peak signal-to-noise ratio and mean squared error varied based on the technique and block size used. The paper concluded that DCT with entropy decomposition can effectively compress MRI images with less quality loss.
Comparative Study between DCT and Wavelet Transform Based Image Compression A...IOSR Journals
This document compares DCT and wavelet transform based image compression algorithms. It finds that wavelet transforms provide better compression ratios and lower mean square errors than DCT. As the level of the wavelet transform increases, the compression ratio increases while the mean square error initially decreases for wavelet levels 1-3. While DCT has faster encoding, it produces blocking artifacts, whereas wavelet transforms maintain good visual quality at higher compression ratios by considering correlations across blocks. Overall, the study shows that wavelet transforms enable higher compression with better visual quality than DCT.

Neural network based image compression with lifting scheme and rlceSAT Journals
This document summarizes a research paper on neural network based image compression using wavelet transforms and lifting schemes. It discusses how wavelet transforms decompose images into frequency bands and how lifting schemes can reduce computational complexity. It also describes multilayer feedforward neural networks and how they can be used for image compression. Specifically, it proposes using a neural network with 64 input nodes, 8 hidden nodes, and 64 output nodes to compress 8x8 pixel blocks of an image by encoding the hidden node weights for transmission instead of the full image pixels. Simulation results showed this approach achieved better compression ratios and image quality than other existing methods.
This document compares the performance of discrete cosine transform (DCT) and wavelet transform for gray scale image compression. It analyzes seven types of images compressed using these two techniques and measured performance using peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR). The results show that wavelet transform outperforms DCT at low bit rates due to its better energy compaction. However, DCT performs better than wavelets at high bit rates near 1bpp and above. So wavelets provide better compression performance when higher compression is required.

A Comprehensive lossless modified compression in medical application on DICOM...IOSR Journals
ABSTRACT : In current days, Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) is widely used for
viewing medical images from different modalities, distribution and storage. Image processing can be processed
by photographic, optical and electronic means, because digital methods are precise, fast and flexible, image
processing using digital computers are the most common method. Image Processing can extract information,
modify pictures to improves and change their structure (image editing, composition and image compression
etc.). Image compression is the major entities of storage system and communication which is capable of
crippling disadvantages of data transmission and image storage and also capable of reducing the data
redundancy. Medical images are require to stored for future reference of the patients and their hospital findings
hence, the medical image need to undergo the process of compression before storing it. Medical images are
much important in the field of medicine, all these Medical image compression is necessary for huge database
storage in Medical Centre and medical data transfer for the purpose of diagnosis. Presently Discrete cosine
transforms (DCT), Run Length Encoding Lossless compression technique, Wavelet transforms (DWT), are the
most usefully and wider accepted approach for the purpose of compression. On basis of based on discrete
wavelet transform we present a new DICOM based lossless image compression method. In the proposed
method, each DICOM image stored in the data set is compressed on the basis of vertically, horizontally and
diagonally compression. We analyze the results from our study of all the DICOM images in the data set using
two quality measures namely PSNR and RMSE. The performance and comparison was made over each images
stored in the set of data set of DICOM images. This work is presenting the performance comparison between
input images (without compression) and after compression results for each images in the data set using DWT
method. Further the performance of DWT method with HAAR process is compared with 2D-DWT method using
the quality metrics of PSNR & RMSE. The performance of these methods for image compression has been
simulated using MATLAB.

This document summarizes a research paper that proposes a hybrid image compression algorithm using discrete wavelet transform (DWT), discrete cosine transform (DCT), and Huffman encoding. The algorithm first applies 2D-DWT to blocks of the input image, discarding high-frequency coefficients. It then applies 4x4 2D-DCT to the low-frequency DWT coefficients. Huffman coding is then used to assign codes to the DCT coefficients. Experimental results on medical and other images show the hybrid algorithm achieves higher compression ratios and peak signal-to-noise ratios than using DWT or DCT alone.

Abstract–– Multimedia data requires considerable storage capacity and transmission bandwidth. The data are in the form
of graphics, audio, video and image. These types of data have to be compressed during the transmission process. Large
amount of data cannot be stored if there is low storage capacity. Compression is minimizing the size in bytes of a
graphics file without degrading the quality of image to an unacceptable level. In this paper we are comparing DCT and
DWT on the basis of performance parameters Peak signal to noise ratio, Bit error rate, Compression ratio, Mean square
error and Time of the compressed images of DCT and DWT.
Keywords-Discrete cosine transform, Discrete wavelet transform, Image compression.
I. INTRODUCTION
Image compression is very important for efficient transmission and storage of images. Demand of
communication of multimedia data through telecommunication network and data accessing through internet is
explosively growing. Image compression is minimizing the size in bytes of a graphics file without degrading the quality
of image to an unacceptable level. Large amount of data can’t be stored if there is low storage capacity present. A gray
scale image that is 256 x 256 pixels have 65, 536 elements to store and a typical 640 x 480 color image have nearly a
million. Downloading of these files from internet can be very time consuming task. The compression offers a means to
reduce the cost of storage and increase the speed of transmission. There are two types of image compression is present.
These are lossy and lossless [1]. In lossless compression technique the reconstructed image after compression is identical
to original image. These images are also called noise less, since they do not add noise to signal image. This is also known
as entropy coding. Loss less compression technique is used only for a few applications with stringent requirement such as
medical imaging. : Lossy compression technique is widely used because the quality of reconstructed images is adequate
for most applications. In this technique the decompressed image is not identical to original image but reasonably closed
to it. In general, lossy techniques provide for greater compression ratios than lossless techniques that are lossless
compression gives good quality of compressed images but yields only less compression whereas the lossy compression
techniques lead to loss of data with higher compression ratio [2].
II. IMAGE COMPRESSION
Image compression means minimizing the size in bytes of a graphics file without degrading the quality of the
image to an unacceptable level. The reduction in file size allows more images to be stored in a given amount of disk more
memory space. However, in this modern internet age, the demand for data transmission and the data storage are
increasing. The main objective of image compression is to find an image representation in which pixels are less
correlated [3]. The two fundamental principles used in image compression are redundancy and irrelevancy. Compression
is achieved by removal of one or more of the three basic data redundancies:
Coding redundancy
Interpixel redundancy
Psychovisual redundancy
2.1Coding redundancy: Coding redundancy is present when less than optimal code words are used. A code is a system
of symbols used to represent a body of information or set of events. Each piece of information or events is assigned a
sequence of code symbols, called a code word. The number of symbols in each code word is its length.
2.2 Interpixel redundancy: Interpixel redundancy results from correlation between pixels of an image. Because the
value of any given pixel can be reasonable predicted from the value of its neighbors, the information carried by
individual pixels is relatively small.
2.3 Psychovisual redundancy: Psychovisual redundancy is due to data that is ignored by human visual system. To
reduce psycho visual redundancy we use quantizer. Since the elimination of psycho visually redundant data results in a
loss of quantitative information. [4]
The compression technique reduces the size of data, which in turn requires less bandwidth and less
transmission time and related cost .There are algorithms developed for the data compression such as Discrete Cosine
Transform (DCT), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) etc.

III. DISCRETE COSINE TRANSFORM(DCT)
The Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) algorithm is well known and commonly used for image compression.
DCT converts the pixels in an image, into sets of spatial frequencies. It has been chosen because it is the best
approximation of the Karhunen_loeve transform that provides the best compression ratio [5]. The DCT work by
separating images into the parts of different frequencies. During a step called Quantization, where parts of compression
actually occur, the less important frequencies are discarded, hence the use of the lossy. Then the most important
frequencies that remain are used retrieve the image in decomposition process. As a result, reconstructed image is
distorted. Compared to other input dependent transforms, DCT has many advantages [6]:
(1) It has been implemented in single integrated circuit.
(2) It has the ability to pack most information in fewest coefficients.
(3) It minimizes the block like appearance called blocking artifact that results when boundaries between sub-images
become visible.
There are mainly two types of DCT: one dimensional (1-D) DCT and two dimensional (2-D) DCT. Since an
image is represented as a two dimensional matrix, for this 2-D DCT is considered [7].
The forward 2D_DCT transformation is given by the following equation:
C(u,v)=D(u)D(v) 𝑁−1
𝑥=0
𝑁−1
𝑦=0 f(x,y)cos[(2x+1)uπ/2N]cos[(2y+1)vπ/2N]
Where, u, v=0, 1, 2, 3… N-1
The inverse 2D-DCT transformation is given by the following equation:
f(x,y)= 𝑁−1
𝑢=0
𝑁−1
𝑣=0 D(u)D(v)D(u,v)cos[(2x+1)uπ/2N]xcos(2y+1)vπ/2N]
Where
D (u) = (1/N) ^1/2 for u=0
D (u) =2(/N) ^1/2 for u=1, 2, 3……., (N-1)
In the DCT compression algorithm
The input image is divided into 8-by-8 or 16-by-16 blocks
The two-dimensional DCT is computed for each block.
The DCT coefficients are then quantized, coded, and transmitted.
The receiver (or file reader) decodes the quantized DCT coefficients, computes the inverse two-dimensional
DCT (IDCT) of each block.
Puts the blocks back together into a single image.

IV. DISCRETE COSINE TRANSFORM (DWT)
Wavelet Transform has become an important method for image compression. Wavelet based coding provides
substantial improvement in picture quality at high compression ratios mainly due to better energy compaction property of
wavelet transforms [8]. Wavelets are functions which allow data analysis of signals or images, according to scales or
resolutions. The DWT represents an image as a sum of wavelet functions, known as wavelets, with different location and
scale. It represents the data into a set of high pass (detail) and low pass (approximate) coefficients. The input data is
passed through set of low pass and high pass filters. The output of high pass and low pass filters are down sampled by
2.The output from low pass filter is an approximate coefficient and the output from the high pass filter is a detail
coefficient [9]. This procedure is one dimensional (1-D) DWT.but in this research work we are using two dimensional (2-
D) DWT. In case of in two directions, both rows and columns. The outputs are then down sampled by 2 in each direction
as in case of 1-D DWT [8]. Output is obtained in set of four coefficients LL, HL, LH 2-D DWT, the input data is passed
through set of both low pass and high pass filter and HH. The first alphabet represents the transform in row where as the
second alphabet represents transform in column. The alphabet L means low pass signal and H means high pass signal. LH
signal is a low pass signal in row and a high pass in column. Hence, LH signal contain horizontal elements. Similarly, HL
and HH contains vertical and diagonal elements, respectively [10].

In this research work each block of the image is then passed through the two filters: high pass filter and low
pass filter. The first level decomposition is performed to decompose the input data into an approximation and the detail
coefficients. After obtaining the transformed matrix, the detail and approximate coefficients are separated as LL, HL, LH,
and HH coefficients. All the coefficients are discarded, except the LL coefficients. The LL coefficients are further
transformed into the second level [11].The process continues for one more level. We are taking four levels of
decomposition. The coefficients are then divided by a constant scaling factor (SF) to achieve the desired compression
ratio. Finally, for data reconstruction, the data is rescaled and padded with zeros, and passed through the wavelet filter
[12].

VI. CONCLUSION
In this paper, we are comparing the results of different transform coding techniques i.e. Discrete Cosine
Transform (DCT) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) we see that DWT provides higher compression ratios &
avoids blocking artifacts. Allows good localization both in spatial & frequency domain. Transformation of the whole
image introduces inherent scaling. Better identification of which data is relevant to human perception higher compression
ratio and we also see that DCT takes more time than DWT.
