Abstract :
Studies the advantages and disadvantages of fractal image compression (FlC) compared to wavelet transform compression (WTC). Our results indicate that there is an advantage in FIC for high compression ratios when we take the image quality into account. Considering the compression speed we have a significant difference, which indicates that WTC is much faster than FIC
