With the fast evolution of Multimedia systems, Image compression algorithms are very much needed to achieve effective transmission and compact storage by removing the redundant information of the image data. Wavelet transforms have received significant attention, recently, due to their suitability for a number of important signal and image compression applications and the lapped nature of this transform and the computational simplicity, which comes in the form of filter bank implementations. In this paper, the implementation of image compression algorithms based on discrete wavelet transform such as embedded zero tree wavelet (EZW) coder, set partitioning in hierarchical trees coder without lists (SPIHT — No List) and packetizable zero tree wavelet (PZW) coder in DSP processor is dealt in detail and their performance analysis is carried out in terms of different compression ratios, execution timing and for different packet losses. PSNR is used as the criteria for the measurement of reconstructed image quality.

Notice of Retraction-----------------------------------------------------------------------After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of APTIKOM's Publication Principles.We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting ij.aptikom@gmail.com.-----------------------------------------------------------------------Image data usually contain considerable quantity of data that is redundant and much irrelevant, whereas an image compression technique overcomes this by compressing the amount of data required to represent the image. In this work, Discrete Wavelet Transform based image compression algorithm is implemented for decomposing the image. The various encoding schemes such as Embedded Zero wavelet, (EZW), Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees(SPIHT) and Spatial orientation Tree Wavelet(STW) are used and their performances in the compression is evaluated and also the effectiveness of different wavelets with various vanishing moments are analyzed based on the values of PSNR, Compression ratio, Means square error and bits per pixel. The optimum compression algorithm is also found based on the results.


For the past two decades, wavelet based image compression algorithms for Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has gained broad attention than that of the spatial based image compression algorithms. In that, Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transforms (DTCWT) has provided better results in terms of image quality and high compression rate. However, the selection of DTCWT based image compressions for various WSN based applications is not practically suitable, due to the major limitations of WSN such as, low bandwidth, low energy consumption and storage space. Therefore, an attempt has been made in this paper to develop image compression through simulation by considering the modified block based pass parallel Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) with Double Density Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DDDTCWT) for compressing the WSN based images. In addition, bivariate shrink method is also adopted with the DDDTCWT to obtain better image quality within less computation time. It is observed through simulation results that above mentioned proposed technique provides better performance than that of existing compression technique

The advent of computer and internet has brought about massive change to the ways images are being managed. This revolution has resulted in changes in image processing and management as well as the huge space requirement for images’ uploading, downloading, transferring and storing nowadays. In guiding against this huge space requirement, images need to be compressed before either storing or transmitting. Several algorithms or techniques on image compression had been developed in literature. In this study, three of these image compression algorithms were developed using MATLAB codes. The three algorithms developed are discrete cosine transform (DCT), discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and set partitioning in hierarchical tree (SPIHT). In order to ascertain which of them is most appropriate for image storing and transmission, comparative performance evaluations were conducted on the three developed algorithms using five performance indices. The results of the comparative performance evaluations show that the three algorithms are effective in image compression but with different efficiency rates. In addition, the comparative performance evaluations results show that DWT has the highest compression ratio and distortion level while the corresponding values for SPIHT is the lowest with those of DCT fall in-between. Also, the results of the study show that the lower the mean square error and the higher the peak signal-to-noise-ratio, the lower the distortion level in the compressed image.

JPEG2000 algorithm has been developed based on the DWT techniques, which have shown how the results achieved in different areas in information technology can be applied to enhance the performance. Lossy image compression algorithms sacrifice perfect image reconstruction in favor of decreased storage requirements. Wavelets have become a popular technology for information redistribution for high-performance image compression algorithms. Lossy compression algorithms sacrifice perfect image reconstruction in favor of improved compression rates while minimizing image quality lossy.

Image information technology has become an important perception technology considering the task of providing lossy image compression with the desired quality using certain encoders Recent researches have shown that the use of a two-step method can perform the compression in a very simple manner and with reduced compression time under the premise of providing a desired visual quality accuracy. However, different encoders have different compression algorithms. These issues involve providing the accuracy of the desired quality. This paper considers the application of the two-step method in an encoder based on a discrete wavelet transform (DWT). In the experiment, bits per pixel (BPP) is used as the control parameter to vary and predict the compressed image quality, and three visual quality evaluation metrics (PSNR, PSNR-HVS, PSNR-HVS-M) are analyzed. In special cases, the two-step method is allowed to be modified. This modification relates to the cases when images subject to lossy compression are either too simple or too complex and linear approximation of dependences is no more valid. Experimental data prove that, compared with the single-step method, after performing the two-step compression method, the mean square error of differences between desired and provided values drops by an order of magnitude. For PSNR-HVS-M, the error of the two-step method does not exceed 3.6 dB. The experiment has been conducted for Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT), a typical image encoder based on DWT, but it can be expected that the proposed method applies to other DWT-based image compression techniques. The results show that the application range of the two-step lossy compression method has been expanded. It is not only suitable for encoders based on discrete cosine transform (DCT) but also works well for DWT-based encoders.

The objective of this paper is to study the main characteristics of wavelets that affect the image compression by using the discrete wavelet transform and lead to an image data compression while preserving the essential quality of the original image. This implies a good compromise between the image compression ratio and the PSNR (Peak Signal Noise Ration).
