I've read the general publications on Barnsleys methods. I'm not impressed. The encoding computation costs are horrendous (and fingerprint archives are huge, small systems are >300,000 images). Second he seems to require human intervention to encode. I can't accept that. As for JPEG the most recent suggestion I saw (in the ACM Comms multimedia article) was to contact ANSI, 1430 Broadway, NY 10018 and ask for the draft standard. I'll try it next week and let you know.
