A Hybrid Lossless-Lossy Binary Image Compression Scheme
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, the authors present a binary image compression scheme that can be used either for lossless or lossy compression requirements. This scheme contains five new contributions. The lossless component of the scheme partitions the input image into a number of non-overlapping rectangles using a new line-by-line method. The upper-left and the lower-right vertices of each rectangle are identified and the coordinates of which are efficiently encoded using three methods of representation and compression. The lossy component, on the other hand, provides higher compression through two techniques. 1) It reduces the number of rectangles from the input image using our mathematical regression models. These mathematical models guarantees image quality so that rectangular reduction should not produce visual distortion in the image. The mathematical models have been obtained through subjective tests and regression analysis on a large set of binary images. 2) Further compression gain is achieved through discarding isolated pixels and 1-pixel rectangles from the image. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes provide significant improvements over previously published work for both the lossy and the lossless components.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
