Abstract
A new lossless image compression method for progressive-resolution transmission of color images is proposed. It is based on spatial and spectral transforms. Reversible wavelet transforms are performed across the red, green, and blue color components first. Then adaptive spectral transforms are applied to associated color subbands. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm can achieve bit rates that are about 20% lower than results obtained with comparable lossless image compression techniques supporting progressive-resolution transmission.
