B. S. Emmanuel, M. B. Mu’azu, S. M. Sani & S. Garba · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2015

The choice of quantization method and the requirement to achieve a trade-off between compressed image quality and degradation are very crucial in the overall performance of a lossy image compression algorithm. In this paper, uniform and non-uniform scalar quantization schemes of...

A Review of Wavelet-Based Image Processing Methods for Fingerprint Compression in Biometric Application

B. S. Emmanuel, M. B. Mu’azu, S. M. Sani & S. Garba · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2014

A data compression algorithm is a signal processing technique used to convert data from a large format to one optimized for compactness. Huge volumes of fingerprint images that need to be transmitted over a network of biometric databases are an excellent example of why data compr...
