Huffman Encoding based Compression

Overview

DualImage is a C++ toolkit for advanced image processing and compression experiments. It features a DualImage class for parallel manipulation of image pairs, supports BMP, PNG, and WebP formats, and implements custom binary encoding/decoding with Huffman compression and efficient bit-packing.

Features:

• Provides Image compression mechanism as a .bin file which closely matches the compression provided by PNG files
• Conversion to multiple image file formats.
• Bit-level compression using bitstreams to minimise file size.
• Custom Binar Encoding.
• Support for BMP, PNG and WebP file types.

Requirements:

1. C++17 or newer
2. libpng and libwebp
3. CMake or g++/clang++
4. zlib or zstd
