Embedded zerotree wavelet (EZW) is an efficient compression method that has advantages in coding, but its multilayer structure information coding reduces signal compression ratio. This paper studies the optimization of the EZW compression algorithm and aims to improve it. First, we used lifting wavelet transformation to process electrocardiograph (ECG) signals, focusing on the lifting algorithm. Second, we utilized the EZW compression coding algorithm, through the ECG information decomposition to determine the feature detection value. Then, according to the feature information, we weighted the wavelet coefficients of ECG (through the coefficient as a measure of weight) to achieve the goal of improved compression benefit.

Medical volume data are rapidly increasing, growing from gigabytes to petabytes, which presents significant challenges in organisation, storage, transmission, manipulation, and rendering. To address the challenges, we propose an end-to-end architecture for data compression, leveraging advanced deep learning technologies. This architecture consists of three key modules: downsampling, implicit neural representation (INR), and super-resolution (SR).
