Abstract

One of the methods used for compressing images especially natural images is by benefiting from fractal features of images. Natural images have properties like Self-Similarity that can be used in image compressing. The basic approach in compressing methods is based on the fractal features and searching the best replacement block for the original image. In this approach the best blocks are the neighborhood blocks, this approach tries to find the best neighbor blocks; Huffman coding can offer better fast fractal compression than Arithmetic coding When compare to Arithmetic coding ,Huffman coding is best for compression, It increases the speed of compression and produces high PSNR. This work saves lot of bits in the image transmission and it also decrease the time for producing a compressed image and also increase the quality of decompressed image. Totally genetic algorithm increases the speed of convergence for reaching the best block.
