Abstract

In this paper we deal with the problem of finding high performance factorizations of wavelet filters to be employed within the lifting scheme framework to yield the integer wavelet transform (IWT). A method is proposed, based on the search for the factorization yielding the minimally non-linear iterated graphic function. Results are reported, referring to a set of popular wavelet filters, which show that the obtained implementations lead to IWTs achieving very satisfactory results for both lossy and lossless image compression.
