The main objective of this paper is to examine the performance of Neuro- Statistical Sparse Transformation Function for implementation in a still image vector coding based compression system. This paper discusses the important features of low bitrate image coding which is based on recent developments in the theory of Multivariate Nonlinear Piecewise Polynomial Approximation in still images. It combines Binary Space Partition (BSP) scheme with Geometric Wavelet (GW) tree approximation so as to efficiently capture curve singularities and provide a sparse representation of the image. The quality of the reconstructed image is measured objectively using Peak Signal to Noise Ratio. Experimental results show that the proposed image compression system yields higher compression with minimal loss.
