Abstract

Symmetry information is used as the basis of a compression algorithm for images of decorative tiles yielding a compact representation. This allows faster network transmission and less space for storage of tile images. This paper presents an algorithm capable of automatically detecting the patterns of symmetry of images of tiles. The methodology developed may apply to any sort of repetitive symmetrical colour images and drawings.
