The works main part is to implement a simple scheme to compress images through plane fitting. The scheme achieves better than 60:1 compression, while maintaining acceptable quality. Results are superior to JPEG at comparable performance. The scheme is multiplication-free, making it a perfect candidate for online and/or progressive compression. Blocking effects were reduced up to 0.85dB of PSNR through simple line fitting on block boundaries. The performance of the scheme is further improved by optimizing its predicted model parameters based on previously coded neighbouring blocks....
