Image Coding Combining Wavelet and Fractals
小波分形混合图象编码

This paper is a review of literatures about the methods of image coding combining wavelet and fractals. After collecting and reading a lot of papers on image coding combining wavelet and fractals, we present a complete and detailed review of this field, including its status and possible future. Through ten years of research, wavelet image coding has been ripe for practice and may be accepted by some international standards of image coding. These standards are expected to come soon. Fractal image coding, however, is still under academic research. Combination with wavelet image coding may be a way out for fractal image coding from academic research to practical application.
