Abstract :
A review of iterated transformation image compression is presented. Generalization of simple iterated function system fractal generating algorithms to an automated iterated transformation algorithm used to compress gray-scale images is reviewed. Compressed images from the Digital Terrain Elevation Database (DTED) are presented and are compared with encodings using adaptive discrete cosine transformations and mean residual vector quantization image compression techniques
