IMAGE CONTOUR EXTRACTION USING NEURAL NETWORK-BASED FRACTAL CODING
Xin Chen · JOURNAL OF INFRARED AND MILLIMETER WAVES · 2000
A coding method was presented to fix the selection of domain blocks when implementing fractal image coding with parallel neural network technologies. The obtained fractal code can be used to get the fine image contour after one iteration from any uniform gray level images (except all black), as well as to reconstruct the original image after many times of iteration from any images. At the same time, this method still keeps the features of simple structure and low computation complextiy. The simulation results show that this method is effective.
