Image compression is essential for applications such as transmission of databases, etc. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for image compression combining recursive wavelet transforms with vector quantization. This method is based on the Kohonen Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) which take into account features of a visual system in both space and frequency domains.
