Abstract
In this paper, It propose methods compressing BTC image utilizing data hiding technique. BTC is used to compress general digital image into binary image and applied into application such as printer. Additional information, transferred with binary image, is as big as the size of binary image. Therefore, we wish to reduce the total transmission bandwidth by decreasing the additional information with sustaining the small image degradation. Because typical BTC image doesn't have enough space for data hiding, we adopt Adaptive AMBTC (Absolute Moment BTC) algorithm to produce the binary image, and calculate virtual histogram from created binary image and modify this histogram for reducing the additional information. The proposed algorithm can reduce about 6-11 % of the image file size, compared with the existing BTC algorithm, without making perceptible image degradation.
