This paper proposes a new algorithms for compression of digital images especially at the encoding stage of compressive sensing. The research consider the fact that a certain region of a given imagery is more important in most applications. The first algorithm proposed for the encoding stage of Compressive Sensing (CS) exploits the known structure of transform image coefficients. The proposed algorithm makes use of the unequal error protection (UEP) principle, which is widely used in the area of error control coding. The second algorithm which exploits the UEP principle to recover the more important part of an image with more quality while the rest part of the image is not significantly degraded. The proposed algorithm shown to be successful in digital image compression where images are represented in the spatial and transform domains. This new algorithm were recommended for use in image compression.
