Abstract :
This paper presents two novel methods for compression of fluorescent dye cell images. The compression methods achieve high compression ratio by pseudo-quantizing the pixel gray levels according to image statistics and extracting and saving the useful regions of the image. The proposed algorithms produce a better compression over the existing lossless image formats in the case of fluorescent dye cell images and this idea of compression can be further extended to other images.
