Mamata Panigrahy, Indrajit Chakrabarti, Anindya Sundar Dhar . Hardware Architecture for Fractal Image Encoder with Quadtree Partitioning. International Conference on Emerging Trends in Informatics and Communication. ICETIC2016, 1 (September 2016), 23-27.
This paper presents the hardware architecture for fractal image compression (FIC) with quadtree partitioning. Fractal image coding with quadtree partitioning allows one to produce higher quality of image. Processing image areas of different complexity with image blocks of varying size enables proper exploration of image details. Additionally, exploiting parallelism present within the algorithm and adopting hardware based solutions speed up the encoding process. The proposed architecture has been implemented on Xilinx Vertex-5 FPGA operating at a frequency of 154MHz.
