IMAGE EMBEDDED ENCONDING USING SET PARTITIONING IN HIERARCHICAL TREE - SPIHT

Abstract

This paper discusses an embedded image compressing technique using the simplified Set Partitioning Hierarchical Tree algorithm implemented in the digital signal processing board Blackfin ADSP BF561 from Analog Devices, reaching a compression of 0.5 bits per pixel an acceptable quality of the recovered image determined using the mean opinion score over user surveys and peak signal to noise ratio applied to the recovered images.
