Abstract :
A new method gives compression comparable with the JPEG lossless mode, with about five times the speed. FELICS is based on a novel use of two neighboring pixels for both prediction and error modeling. For coding, the authors use single bits, adjusted binary codes, and Golomb or Rice codes. For the latter they present and analyze a provably good method for estimating the single coding parameter
