Backpropagation Neural Network Implementation for Medical Image Compression

الملخص EN

Medical images require compression, before transmission or storage, due to constrained bandwidth and storage capacity.

An ideal image compression system must yield high-quality compressed image with high compression ratio.

In this paper, Haar wavelet transform and discrete cosine transform are considered and a neural network is trained to relate the X-ray image contents to their ideal compression method and their optimum compression ratio.
