Abstract

A lossless compression scheme for coding color-indexed images is proposed in this paper. This two-stage scheme first turns the index map of a color-indexed image into a new index map each element of which serves as an index to a pixel-dependently reordered version of the palette. Consequently, it reduces the zero-order entropy and the energy of the index map and removes the spatial correlation among pixels significantly. A matching coding scheme is then exploited to encode the new index map effectively. Simulation results show that the proposed compression scheme is superior to other state-of-art lossless compression schemes for coding color-indexed images in terms of compression performance.
