Abstract
Fractal image compression is based on the rather poorly
motivated assumption that "natural" images exhibit significant
affine self-similarity. The accuracy of this assumption is
evaluated by a comparison between the statistics of natural
images and those of a multiresolution stochastic model designed
to generate images exhibiting affine self-similarity as assumed
by fractal coding techniques. These comparisons suggest that
self-affinity does not represent a particularly accurate
characterisation of image statistics.
