The concept uses Reversible Contrast Mapping (RCM) which is a function of a simple integer transform developed for reversible watermarking method. The use of RCM in image compression is done similarly with the watermarking method. In this method, an image is divided into fixed-size blocks, the blocks are divided into two groups based on the data storage capacity. Blocks with smaller storage capacities are used as watermarks for the other blocks. The compression ratio of this method is similar to the Huffman compression. This method can also be used together with the Huffman compression technique to increase the overall compression ratio. ## Keywords - Lossless compression - Huffman coding - Image compression - Data compression - Lossy compression - Computer science - Texture compression - Compression (physics) - Data compression ratio - Compression ratio - Image (mathematics) - Algorithm - Artificial intelligence - Computer vision - Image processing - Materials science - Engineering - Internal combustion engine - Automotive engineering - Composite material --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
