Wavelet scalar quantization
text:
The Wavelet Scalar Quantization algorithm (WSQ) is a compression algorithm used for gray-scale fingerprint images. It is based on wavelet theory and has become a standard for the exchange and storage of fingerprint images. WSQ was developed by the FBI, the Los Alamos National Laboratory, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This compression method is preferred over standard compression algorithms like JPEG because at the same compression ratios WSQ doesn't present the "
