Lossy and lossless image compression using reversible integer wavelet transforms

Fang Sheng, Ali Bilgin, Philip J. Sementilli, M.W. Marcelling · 2002

There has been recent interest in using reversible integer wavelet transforms for image compression. These transforms allow both lossless and lossy decoding-by resolution and/or accuracy-using a single bitstream. We investigate the lossless and lossy performance of these transforms in the JPEG-2000 Verification Model O. The lossless compression performance of the presented method is comparable to JPEG-LS. The lossy performance is quite competitive with other efficient lossy compression methods.
