Abstract

This paper introduces the Magnitude Sensitive Competitive Learning (MSCL) algorithm as a reliable and effi- cient approach for selective image compression. MSCL is a neural network that has the property of distributing the unit centroids in certain data-distribution zones according to a target magnitude locally calculated for every unit. This feature can be used for image compression to define the block images that will be compressed by Vector Quantization in a later step. As a result, areas of interest receive a lower compression than other parts in the image. Following this approach higher quality in the salient areas of a compressed image is achieved in relation to other methods.
