Abstract

Several techniques based on the three2013;dimensional (3-D) discrete cosine transform (DCT) have been proposed for visual data coding. These techniques fail to provide coding coupled with quality and resolution scalability, which is a significant drawback for contextual domains, such decease diagnosis, satellite image analysis. This paper gives an overview of several state-of-the-art 3-D wavelet coders that do meet these requirements and mainly investigates various types of compression techniques those exists, and putting it all together for a conclusion on further research scope.
