A method for image lossless compression using lifting scheme wavelet transform is presented. The proposed method adjusts wavelet filter coefficients analyzing signal spectral characteristics to obtain a higher compression ratio in comparison to the standard CDF(2,2) and CDF(4,4) filters. The proposal is based on spectral pattern recognition with 1-NN classifier. Spectral patterns of a small fixed length are formed for the entire image permitting thus the global optimization of the filter coefficients, equal for all decompositions. The proposed method was applied to a set of test images obtaining better results in entropy values in comparison to the standard wavelet lifting filters.
