Abstract

A novel approach for the lossless compression of monochrome images using switching theoretic techniques is presented. Bit planes of the image are divided into blocks and converted to Boolean switching functions. Compression is performed by finding a minimal representation for each switching function. The method compares well with JPEG in terms of compression ratio.
