Abstract
This paper proposes a novel algorithm for fractal coding of image sequence, based on the CPM (Circular Prediction Mapping) and the NCIM (Non Contractive Interframe Mapping). In the CPM and the NCIM, each range block is approximated by a domain block in the adjacent frame, which is of the same size as the range block. Also, in this paepr, we propose a coding scheme of color components and an algorithm for controlling the bit rate, resepectively, for practical implementation of the fractal coder. The computer simulation results on real image sequences demonstrate that the proposed algorithm provides very promising performance at low bit-rate, below 256 Kbps.
