Image Compression By Embedding Five Modulus Method Into JPEG
This work addresses image compression efficiency for applications requiring higher compression ratios, but it is incremental as it builds upon the standard JPEG format.
The paper tackles improving JPEG image compression by embedding the Five Modulus Method (FMM) into the algorithm, resulting in a compression ratio that can be increased to twice that of standard JPEG or more while maintaining similar reconstructed image quality.
The standard JPEG format is almost the optimum format in image compression. The compression ratio in JPEG sometimes reaches 30:1. The compression ratio of JPEG could be increased by embedding the Five Modulus Method (FMM) into the JPEG algorithm. The novel algorithm gives twice the time as the standard JPEG algorithm or more. The novel algorithm was called FJPEG (Five-JPEG). The quality of the reconstructed image after compression is approximately approaches the JPEG. Standard test images have been used to support and implement the suggested idea in this paper and the error metrics have been computed and compared with JPEG.
