Improvements in speed, simplicity of codebook entries, and visual quality with no loss in either the amount of compression or the SNR as compared to the original full-search version are presented.
Abstract
Constantinescu and Storer presented a new single-pass adaptive vector quantization algorithm that learns a codebook of variable size and shape entries; they presented experiments on a set of test images showing that with no training or prior knowledge of the data, for a given fidelity, the compression achieved typically equals or exceeds that of the JPEG standard. This paper presents improvements in speed (by employing K-D trees), simplicity of codebook entries, and visual quality with no loss in either the amount of compression or the SNR as compared to the original full-search version. >

A suboptimal lossy data compression based on approximate pattern matching

TL;DR: For stationary mixing sequences, the problem investigated by Steinberg and Gutman by showing that a lossy extension of the Wyner-Ziv (1989) scheme cannot be optimal is settled, and the asymptotic behavior of the so-called approximate waiting time N/sub l/ is established.

Lossless compression of continuous-tone images

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors survey some of the recent advances in lossless compression of continuous-tone images and discuss the modeling paradigms underlying the state-of-the-art algorithms, and the principles guiding their design.

Multidimensional signal compression using multiscale recurrent patterns

TL;DR: A theoretical analysis of the approximate matching of Gaussian vectors using scales is given, which gives a justification of why approximate multiscale matching is a good option, specially at low rates.

Pattern matching image compression: algorithmic and empirical results

TL;DR: The main idea behind the PMIC is a lossy extension of the Lempel-Ziv data compression scheme in which one searches for the longest prefix of an uncompressed image that approximately occurs in the already processed image.

Lossless image compression using generalized LZ1-type methods

TL;DR: This work generalizes "LZ1" type methods to lossless image compression to two dimensions with approximate matching and examines complexity issues and 2D implementations.

Multidimensional binary search trees used for associative searching

TL;DR: The multidimensional binary search tree (or k-d tree) as a data structure for storage of information to be retrieved by associative searches is developed and it is shown to be quite efficient in its storage requirements.

Vector Quantization and Signal Compression

TL;DR: The author explains the design and implementation of the Levinson-Durbin Algorithm, which automates the very labor-intensive and therefore time-heavy and expensive process of designing and implementing a Quantizer.

An Algorithm for Finding Best Matches in Logarithmic Expected Time

TL;DR: An algorithm and data structure are presented for searching a file containing N records, each described by k real valued keys, for the m closest matches or nearest neighbors to a given query record.
