Optimized Multispectral Satellite Image Compression Using Wavelet Transforms and Machine Learning Classification
摘要
In this paper, we present an optimized approach for compressing multispectral satellite images (MSSI) using Discrete Wavelet Transforms (DWT) combined with machine learning-based band classification. Traditional methods often lead to information loss or inefficiencies when applied to multispectral imagery. To overcome this, we classify MSSI bands into high and low-information categories by analyzing wavelet coefficients using Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) and K-means clustering. High-information bands are compressed using Huffman coding, while low-information bands leverage Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to reduce dimensionality without significant data loss. Experimental results on Landsat 8 and Sentinel 2 datasets demonstrate the superiority of our method, achieving Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratios (PSNR) of up to 39.97 dB for Landsat 8 and 70.72 dB for Sentinel 2, with Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) values as high as 0.95. Additionally, our method improved compression ratios by up to 74.4%, outperforming conventional techniques. These results validate the efficiency of our approach in reducing storage and transmission costs while maintaining high image fidelity, offering a robust solution for satellite image compression.
