Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper, with reference to compression of different images' portions with various qualities, is to obtain a high‐compression coefficient.

Design/methodology/approach

Usually, not all parts of a medical image have equal significance. Also, an image's background can be combined with noise. This method separates a part of the video which is moving from a part that is stationary.

Findings

This process results in the high‐quality compression of medical frames.

Originality/value

Separating parts of a frame using 2D and 3D wavelet transform makes a valuable contribution to biocybernetics.
