Many modern information processing and control systems for various fields are based on software and hardware for image processing and analysis. At the same time, it is often necessary to ensure the storage and transmission of large data sets, including image collections. Data compression technologies are used to reduce the amount of memory required and increase the speed of information transmission. To date, approaches based on the use of discrete wavelet transformations have been developed and applied. The advantage of these transformations is the ability to localize the points of brightness change in images. The detailing coefficients corresponding to such points make a significant contribution to the energy of the image. This contribution can be quantified in the form of weights, the analysis of which allows us to determine the method of quantization of the coefficients of the wavelet transform in the proposed lossy compression method. The approach described in the paper corresponds to the general scheme of image compression and provides for the stages of transformation, quantization and encoding. It provides good compression performance and can be used in information processing and control systems.
