Abstract
This paper proposes a fast encoding algorithm for iterated function system (IFS) coding of gray-level homogeneous fractal images. In order to realize IFS coding of high order fractal images, it is necessary to solve a set of simultaneous equations with many unknowns. Solving the simultaneous equations using a multi-dimensional, numerical root-finding method is however very time consuming. As preprocessing of numerical computation, the proposed algorithm employs univariate polynomial manipulation, which requires less computation time than multivariate polynomial manipulation. Moreover, the symmetry'of the simultaneous equations with respect to the displacement coefficients enables us to derive an equation with a single unknown from the simultaneous equations using univariate polynomial manipulation. An experimental result is presented to illustrate that the encoding time of the proposed algorithm is about 5 seconds on a personal computer with a 400 MHz Pentium II processor.
