    This study introduces an optical parallel architecture for decoding fractal images using iterated-function system (IFS) codes. This novel approach significantly enhances decoding speed compared to serial methods.

    Area of Science:

    • Optics
    • Computer Vision
    • Image Processing

    Background:

    • Fractal image compression utilizes iterated-function systems (IFS) for efficient data representation.
    • Decoding fractal images typically involves iterative algorithms that can be computationally intensive.
    • Existing serial-decoding architectures limit the speed of fractal image reconstruction.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and validate a novel optical parallel architecture for decoding fractal images.
    • To leverage iterated-function system (IFS) codes for accelerated image reconstruction.
    • To improve decoding speed significantly over conventional serial methods.

    Main Methods:

    • The proposed architecture converts iterated-function system (IFS) code values into transmittance using spatial light modulators.
