Fractal image compression techniques exploit the inherent self-similarity found in images by utilising iterated function systems (IFS) and affine transformations to represent images in a compressed ...

Fifty years ago, “fractal” was born. In a 1975 book, the Polish-French-American mathematician Benoit B. Mandelbrot coined the term to describe a family of rough, fragmented shapes that fall outside ...

Fractals are geometric objects that are exactly self-similar and have a fractional (Hausdorff) dimension. Consequently, they contain an infinite amount of detail. However, they can be described by a ...
