| Summary: | The objective of image compression is to reduce the number of bits required to represent an image. The art of developing and designing an image compression scheme is balancing among the compression ratio, distortion and the processing time. Existing compression techniques involve low and high compression ratio of significant loss of image quality. New image compressing technique is required for storage. In this thesis, a new technique is proposed to compress the image and to gain higher compression ratio with smaller distortion. The main features of the proposed hybrid image compression are high compression ratio and high resolution of decompressed images. The new technique is combining three different algorithms: Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). The proposed technique uses features of these algorithms and it consists of three steps. In the first step, DFT was applied to compress image, in the second step, DWT was applied and in the third step DCT was applied to compress image. The experimental results show that the proposed hybrid image compression achieved high compression ratio while preserving the quality of the reconstructed image. The experimental results also show that the Peak Signal-to- Noise Ratio (PSNR) value of the proposed technique was 83.6914 and the Mean Square Error (MSE) value was 2.7793 for Lena image. For all standard images, the results show that the proposed hybrid image compression performed better than the existing methods in terms of PSNR and in terms of MSE values. Finally, the proposed hybrid image compression further improves the image transmission and storage capacity of the image. |
