Abstract

Halftone technique is well known for printing where binary data is required. 8:1 compression ratio is achieved by half toning method. To get higher compression ratio the same technique can be used in image processing. In our earlier work different half toning operators are proposed. The half toning operator of size 3X3 which effectively take only one tap operation. Hence the computational complexity and memory space is reduced. For further compression of the image data Vector Quantization technique is used. Vector Quantization technique itself gives very high compression ratio. To avoid time and computational complexity Kekre’s Fast Code Book Generation (KFCG) algorithm is used. In this paper we have used 8, 16, 32, 64, 128 and 256 codebook sizes are used. The pixel group of 2X2 size is used. The experimental results are obtained for various images. For image data compression and image quality measurement, we have used Compression Ratio and Mean Square Error as measuring parameters respectively. We have got result with good Compression Ratio and acceptable image quality. This proposed combination of two compression technique is suitable for video data streaming, where low bit rate for data transmission is the major constraint.
