Wavelet Toolbox    

Compressing Images

The purpose of this example is to show how to compress an image using two-dimensional wavelet analysis. Compression is one of the most important applications of wavelets. The image to be compressed is a fingerprint.

For this example, open the Wavelet 2-D tool and select the menu item FileDemo Analysisat level 3, with haar --> finger.

The analysis appears in the Wavelet 2-D tool. Click the Compress button (located at the middle right) to bring up the Wavelet 2-D Compression window.
