Abstract

The main computational cost in Fractal Image Analysis (FIC) comes from the required range-domain full block comparisons. In this work we propose a new algorithm for this comparison, in which actual full block comparison is preceded by a very fast hash–like search of those domains close to a given range block, resulting in a performance linear with respect to the number of pixels. Once the algorithm is detailed, its results will be compared against other state–of–the–art methods in FIC.
