Over recent times, medical imaging plays a significant role in clinical practices. Storing and transferring the huge volume of images becomes complicated without an efficient image compression technique. This paper proposes a compression algorithm that uses a Haar based wavelet transform called Tetrolet transform, which reduces the noise on the input images and decomposes with a 4 x 4 blocks of equal squares called tetrominoes. It opts for a decomposing using optimal scheme for achieving the input image into a sparse representation which gives a much-detailed performance for texture and edge information better than wavelet transform. Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) is used for encoding the significant coefficients to achieve efficient image compression. It has been investigated with various metaheuristic algorithms. Experimental results prove that the proposed method outperforms the other transform-based compression in terms of PSNR, CR, and Complexity. Also, the proposed method shows an improved result with another state of work.

This paper concerns Image compression obtained with wavelet-based compression techniques such as set–partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT)yield very good results The necessity in image compression continuously grows during the last decade, different types of methods is used for this mainly EZW, SPIHT and others. In this paper we used discrete wavelet transform and after this set-partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) with some improvement in respect of encoding and decoding time with better PSNR with respect to EZW coding.

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
