Abstract

In recent decades, digital images have become increasingly important. With many modern applications use image graphics extensively, it tends to burden both the storage and transmission process. Despite the technological advances in storage and transmission, the demands placed on storage and bandwidth capacities still exceeded its availability. Compression is one of the solutions to this problem but elimination some of the data degrades the image quality. Therefore, the Standard Deviation-Based Thresholding Algorithm is proposed to estimate an accurate threshold value for a better-compressed image quality. The threshold value is obtained by examining the wavelet coefficients dispersion on each wavelet subband using Standard Deviation concept. The resulting compressed image shows a better image quality with PSNR value above 40dB.
