With compressed bit streams, more configuration information can be stored using the same memory. The access delay is also reduced, because less bits need to be transferred through the memory interface. To measure the efficiency of bit stream compression, compression ratio (CR) is widely used as a metric. it is a major challenge to develop an efficient compression technique that can significantly reduce the bit stream size without sacrificing the decompression performance. Our approach combines the advantages of previous compression techniques with good compression ratio and those with fast decompression. This paper makes three important contributions. First, it performs smart placement of compressed bit streams to enable fast decompression of variable-length coding. Next, it selects bitmask-based compression parameters suitable for bit stream compression. Finally, it efficiently combines run length encoding and bitmask-based compression to obtain better compression and faster decompression.

Medical image compression is considered one of the most important research fields nowadays in biomedical applications. The majority of medical images must be compressed without loss because each pixel information is of great value. With the widespread use of applications concerning medical imaging in the health-care context and the increased significance in telemedicine technologies, it has become crucial to minimize both the storage and bandwidth requirements needed for archiving and transmission of medical imaging data, rather by employing means of lossless image compression algorithms. Furthermore, providing high resolution and image quality preservation of the processed image data has become of great benefit. The proposed system introduces a lossless image compression technique based on Run Length Encoding (RLE) that encodes the original magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image into actual values and their numbers of occurrence. The actual image data values are separated from their runs and they are stored in a vector array. Lempel–Ziv–Welch (LZW) is used to provide further compression that is applied to values array only. Finally the Variable Length Coding (VLC) will be applied to code the values and runs arrays for the precise amount of bits adaptively into a binary file. These bit streams are reconstructed using inverse LZW of the values array and inverse RLE to reconstruct the input image. The obtained compression gain is enhanced by 25% after applying LZW to the values array.

This study concern to characterize the pancreas areato head, body and tail using Gray Level Run Length Matrix (GLRLM) and extract classification features from CT images. The GLRLM techniques included eleven’s features. To find the gray level distribution in CT images it complements the GLRLM features extracted from CT images with runs of gray level in pixels and estimate the size distribution of thesubpatterns. analyzing the image with Interactive Data Language IDL software to measure the grey level distribution of images. The results show that the Gray Level Run Length Matrix and  features give classification accuracy of pancreashead 89.2%, body 93.6 and the tail classification accuracy 93.5%. The overall classification accuracy of pancreas area 92.0%.These relationships are stored in a Texture Dictionary that can be later used to automatically annotate new CT images with the appropriate pancreas area names.

In this paper, several combination algorithms between Partial Update LMS (PU LMS) methods and previously proposed algorithm (New Variable Length LMS (NVLLMS)) have been developed. Then, the new sets of proposed algorithms were applied to an Acoustic Echo Cancellation system (AEC) in order to decrease the filter coefficients, decrease the convergence time, and enhance its performance in terms of Mean Square Error (MSE) and Echo Return Loss Enhancement (ERLE). These proposed algorithms will use the Echo Return Loss Enhancement (ERLE) to control the operation of filter's coefficient length variation. In addition, the time-varying step size is used.The total number of coefficients required was reduced by about 18% , 10% , 6%, and 16% using Periodic, Sequential, Stochastic, and M-max PU NVLLMS algorithms respectively, compared to that used by a full update method which  is very important, especially in the application of mobile communication since the power consumption must be considered. In addition, the average ERLE and average Mean Square Error (MSE) for M-max PU NVLLMS are better than other proposed algorithms.
