Survey on Fractal image compression

The need for multimedia applications has increased over the years. Due to this issue, image andvideo compression becoming an essential problem in reducing time and data storage. Fractal ImageCompression (FIC) is a compression technique which results in loss, and we can have largeamounts of compression. This scheme works by classifying an image into blocks and usesContractive Mapping. Some of FICs advantages can be expressed as follows: comparing with otherstandard compression techniques, it has a good interchange between PNSR and compression ratioand it zooms the image without reducing the quality due to its resolution independent nature. Themain FICs drawback, is its complexity in encoding and lack of speed.
