Image Data Compression/Reconstruction by Fuzzy Relational Equation

Various image compression methods have been proposed to realize the easiness and relative inexpensiveness for obtaining and storing digital information, and the possibility to manipulate such information is almost unlimited [1][6][8]. As the number of image compression methods grows steadily, selecting appropriate methods is no longer a simple task. Now we face a stage in which we choose an appropriate method considering its applications (e.g. image database [5] and digital watermark [2] etc). An example of such image compression methods has been proposed by Hirota and Pedrycz, called Image Compression method based on Fuzzy relational equation [4]. In this paper, a fast image reconstruction method for ICF is proposed.
