Abstract

In this paper scrutinizes image compression using HalftoningBased Block Truncation Coding for color image. Many algorithms were selected likely the original Block Truncation coding, Ordered Dither Block Truncation Coding, Error Diffusion Block Truncation Coding , and Dot Diffused Block Truncation Coding. These above techniques are divided image into non overlapping blocks. BTC acts as the basic compression technique but it exhibits two disadvantages such as the false contour and blocking effect. Hence halftoning based block truncation coding (HBTC) is used to overcome the two issues. Objective measures are used to evaluate the image degree of excellence such as Peak Signal to Noise Ratio, Mean Square Error, Structural Similarity Index and Compression Ratio. At the end, conclusions have shown that the Dot Diffused Block Truncation Coding algorithm outperforms the Block Truncation Coding as well as Error Diffusion Block Truncation Coding.
