Abstract

As an important analysis tool, wavelet transform has made a great development in image compression coding, since Daubechies constructed a kind of compact support orthogonal wavelet and Mallat presented a fast pyramid algorithm for wavelet decomposition and reconstruction. In order to raise the compression ratio and improve the visual quality of reconstruction, it becomes very important to find a wavelet basis that fits the human visual system (HVS). Marr wavelet, as it is known, is a kind of wavelet, so it is not suitable for implementation of image compression coding. In this paper, a new method is provided to construct a kind of compactly supported biorthogonal wavelet based on human visual system, we employ the genetic algorithm to construct compactly supported biorthogonal wavelet that can approximate the modulation transform function for HVS. The novel constructed wavelet is applied to image compression coding in our experiments. The experimental results indicate that the visual quality of reconstruction with the new kind of wavelet is equivalent to other compactly biorthogonal wavelets in the condition of the same bit rate. It has good performance of reconstruction, especially used in texture image compression coding.
