Abstract
New methods for compact image coding based on generalized wavelet decompositions have been introduced recently. Unlike in the classical wavelet decomposition scheme it is possible to use different scaling and wavelet functions at every scale by using non-stationary multiresolution analyses. In this work we introduce parallel algorithms (suitable for MIMD architectures) that excel the execution speed for this type of lossy compression algorithms by far.
