Abstract :
This paper introduces a new multiresolution predictive scheme for lossless compression of medical images. The proposed scheme consists of three successive steps: namely, multiresolution decomposition, hierarchical interpolation and predictive coding using two-dimensional multiplicative autoregressive models. The performance of the proposed technique is compared with three alternative techniques: namely, difference pyramid (DP), reduced difference pyramid (RDP) and hierarchical interpolation (HINT) method. The experimental results indicate that the proposed scheme achieves significantly higher compression compared to the other techniques considered
