Effect of KMM on JPEG compression

Abstract: Image compression is essential for efficient transmission and storage of images. This paper uses K-Modulus Method which transforms the whole image into multiples of predefined integer. Dividing the whole image by that integer will guarantee that the new image is less in size from the original image. KMM is used along with JPEG to increase the compression ratio and PSNR value. Keywords: Compression, KMM, JPEG, DCT.
