AN INTRODUCTION TO FRACTAL IMAGE COMPRESSION

This paper gives and introduction on Image Coding based on Fractals and develops a simple algorithm to be used as a reference design.

The Fractal Coding System described in this project was developed from the ideas proposed by Arnaud Jacquin in his paper published in IEEE Trans. "Image Coding Based on Fractal Theory of Iterated Contractive Image Transformation"

Two implementations of the proposed Fractal Encoding Technique have been developed. One using an ELF TMS320C31 board from SPOX by Rahmi Hezar (PhD student at Georgia Institute of Technology) and the second using MATLAB DSP Simulator by Alex Candela (Field Application Engineer at Texas Instruments)
