Abstract

Image compression wherein a spatial prediction filter combines two adjacent samples and a corner sample in the proportion 3:3:−2, or wherein chunked decode tables are used to decode embedded prefix codes more than one bit at a time. A spectral prediction filter might be used in conjunction with the spatial prediction filter. Chunked decode tables might be used in combination with simple prediction filters.
