Fractal coding is a novel method to compress images, which was proposed by Barnsley, and implemented by Jacquin. It offers many advantages. Fractal image coding has the advantage of higher compression ratio, but is a lossy compression scheme. The encoding procedure consists of dividing the image into range blocks and domain blocks and then it takes a range block and matches it with the domain block. The image is encoded by partitioning the domain block and using affine transformation to achieve fractal compression. The image is reconstructed using iterative functions and inverse transforms. However, the encoding time of traditional fractal compression technique is too long to achieve real-time image compression, so it cannot be widely used. Based on the theory of fractal image compression; this paper raised an improved algorithm form the aspect of image segmentation. In the present work the fractal coding techniques are applied for the compression of satellite imageries. The Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) values are determined for images namely Satellite Rural image and Satellite Urban image. The Matlab simulation results for the reconstructed image shows that PSNR values achievable for Satellite Rural image ~33 and for Satellite urban image ~42.

Aiming at deficiency of fractal image compression, encoding time length and large amount of calculation, an improved algorithm of fractal compression is proposed based on the average deviation. First,divided image into blocks by using the characteristics of the average deviation, then determined the image block matching constraints by the application of the scale factor to simplify the calculation method, and finally limited the search range with the constraints, thus decrease the amount of the search range, improve the efficiency of the domain block matching. The simulation results show that the improved algorithm can reduce the computation of block matching, and improve the fractal image coding efficiency.

 Image Compression techniques have become a very important subject with the rapid growth of multimedia application. The main motivations behind the image compression are for the efficient and lossless transmission as well as for storage of digital data. Image Compression techniques are of two types; Lossless and Lossy compression techniques. Lossy compression techniques are applied for the natural images as minor loss of the data are acceptable. Entropy encoding is the lossless compression scheme that is independent with particular features of the media as it has its own unique codes and symbols. Huffman coding is an entropy coding approach for efficient transmission of data. This paper highlights the fractal image compression method based on the fractal features and searching and finding the best replacement blocks for the original image. Canonical Huffman coding which provides good fractal compression than arithmetic coding is used in this paper. The result obtained depicts that Canonical Huffman coding based fractal compression technique increases the speed of the compression and has better PNSR as well as better compression ratio than standard Huffman coding.

The goal of image compression is to represent an image with as few number of bits as possible while keeping the quality of the original image. With the characteristics of higher compression ratio, fractal image coding has received much attention recently. However, conventional fractal compression approach needs more time to code the original image. In order to overcome the time-consuming issue, a Quadtree-based partitioning and matching scheme is proposed. During the partitioning phase, an image frame is partitioned into tree-structural segments. And during a matching phase, a rang block only searches its corresponding domain block around previous matched domain block. Such local matching procedures will not stop until a predefined matching threshold is obtained. The preliminary experimental results show that such sub-matching rather than a global matching scheme dramatically decreases the matching complexity, while preserving the quality of an approximate image to the original after decoding process. In particular, the proposed scheme improves the coding process up to 2 times against the conventional fractal image coding approach.

Fractal image compression is a lossy compression technique developed in the early 1990s. It makes use of the local self-similarity property existing in an image and finds a contractive mapping affine transformation (fractal transform) T, such that the fixed point of T is close to the given image in a suitable metric. It has generated much interest due to its promise of high compression ratios with good decompression quality. Image encoding based on fractal block-coding method relies on assumption that image redundancy can be efficiently exploited through block-self transformability. It has shown promise in producing high fidelity, resolution independent images. The low complexity of decoding process also suggested use in real time applications. The high encoding time, in combination with patents on technology have unfortunately discouraged results. In this paper, we have proposed efficient domain search technique using feature extraction for the encoding of fractal image which reduces encoding-decoding time and proposed technique improves quality of compressed image.

Fractal encoding method becomes an effective image compression method because of its high compression ratio and short decompressing time. But one problem of known fractal compression method is its high computational complexity and consequent long compressing time. To address this issue, in this paper, distance clustering in high dimensional sphere surface is applied to speed up the fractal compression method. Firstly, as a preprocessing strategy, an image is divided into blocks, which are mapped on high dimensional sphere surface. Secondly, a novel image matching method is presented based on distance clustering on high dimensional sphere surface. Then, the correctness and effectiveness properties of the mentioned method are analyzed. Finally, experimental results validate the positive performance gain of the method.

Fractal image compression depends on self-similarity, where one segment of a image is like the other one segment of a similar picture. Fractal coding is constantly connected to grey level images. The simplest technique to encode a color image by gray- scale fractal image coding algorithm is to part the RGB color image into three Channels - red, green and blue, and compress them independently by regarding each color segment as a specific gray-scale image. The colorimetric association of RGB color pictures is examined through the calculation of the relationship essential of their three-dimensional histogram. For normal color images, as a typical conduct, the connection necessary is found to pursue a power law, with a non- integer exponent type of a given image. This conduct recognizes a fractal or multiscale self-comparable sharing of the colors contained, in average characteristic pictures. This finding of a conceivable fractal structure in the colorimetric association of regular images complement other fractal properties recently saw in their spatial association. Such fractal colorimetric properties might be useful to the characterization and demonstrating of natural images, and may add to advance in vision. The outcomes got demonstrate that the fractal-based compression for the color image fills in similarly with respect to the color image.
