R. D. Dony, E. R. Vrscay. IFS coding using an MPC network library. In Proc. 1998 IEEE Canadian Conference Elect Comp Eng, CCECE'98, Waterloo, Ontario, May 1998.
This paper examines the relationship between iterated function systems (IFS), a fractal approach to image compression, and mixutre of principal components (MPC), a neural network approach to image compression. Both can be fundamentally expressed as a local linear transformation. In IFS, the basis vector comes from the image itself and evolves during the iterations while in MPC, the trained network contains the basis basis vectors. A new method of image compression is presented which uses an MPC network as a library for reducing the search for the large domain blocks in IFS. The resulting hybrid approach has between tested on a standard image.
