Abstract

Prediction techniques have been applied very successfully in compression of speech data. Similar success with image data has not been obtained. In this paper we employ an approach based on spanning trees to construct non-linear predictive schemes. This approach holds promise in leading to new simple and effective non-linear predictive schemes. Our approach is novel in the sense that images are not scanned in any predetermined fashion nor is the prediction for any pixel based on a single fixed scheme. Preliminary implementations give promising results over a wide range of images.
