The fractal image compression is a method, or class of methods, that allows images to be stored on computers in much less memory than standard ways of storing images. Empirical results show that the fractal scheme is at least as good as, and better than some compression ranges, than the current standard JPEG. The paper presents : a mathematical description of iterated function systems and their generalizations for image encoding;

a description of quadtree-based method for fractal encoding; a description of a algorithm for weighted finite automata.
