There has been tremendous progress in fractal compression since the pioneer work of Barnsley and Jaquin in the late 1980s. As the encoding time complexity issues are gradually bein solved, there is a steady growth of applications of fractals, especially in hybrid systems. However, such fractal hybrid systems tend to be rather difficult to analyse, and part of that difficulty ies in the quantizatin of the scaling and luminance offset parameters adopted in most fractal compression schemes. In this paper, we present theoretical and empirical justification for a well-known but underused alternative parametrization for the fractal affine transform. In particular, we shall present a detaied analysis of a hybrid fractal-LPC (linear predictivee coding) compression scheme using the aforementioned alternative affine transform parameters
