Refined fixed double pass binary object classification for document image compression

We tested our dictionary formation method on a compression system that uses 3OT chain code to codify the chosen patterns and the Paq8l archiver to compress the resulting string. The compression ratios applied over the eight CCITT test binary images benchmarks, at 200 and 600 dpi, are better compressed against state of the art and standard methods. Comparing with JBIG2 we obtained 27% better compression level at 200 dpi and 65% at 600 dpi, comparing with DjVu's JB2 we obtained 6% better compression level at 200 dpi and 35% at 600 dpi and comparing with 3OT-Paq8l we obtained 38% better compression at 200 dpi and 30% at 600 dpi.
