Abstract

In this paper, a predictor switching algorithm for lossless compression is proposed. It uses adaptively one of two predictors using errors obtained by MED(median edge detector) and GAP(gradient adaptive prediction). The reduced error is measured by existing entropy method. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can compress higher than existing predictive methods.

본 논문에서는 무손실 압축을 위하여 예측기를 스위칭하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 MED(median edge detector), GAP(gradient adaptive prediction) 예측기의 예측 에러들에 따라 적응적으로 하나의 예측기를 이용하여 화소값을 예측한다. 그리고, 에러는 기존의 엔트로피 방법을 이용하여 측정한다. 실험 결과, 제안하는 알고리즘이 기존 예측 방법보다 적은 에러값과 엔트로피를 가짐으로써 향상된 압축을 할 수 있음을 보인다.
