<![CDATA[Data Compression can save some storage space and accelerate data transfer. Among many compression algorithm, Run Length Encoding (RLE) is a simple and fast algorithm. RLE can be used to compress many types of data. However, RLE is not very effective for image lossless compression because there are many little differences between neighboring pixels. This research proposes a new lossless compression algorithm called YRL that improve RLE using the idea of Relative Encoding. YRL can treat the value of neighboring pixels as the same value by saving those little differences / relative value separately. The test done by using various standard image test shows that YRL have an average compression ratio of 75.805% for 24-bit bitmap and 82.237% for 8-bit bitmap while RLE have an average compression ratio of 100.847% for 24-bit bitmap and 97.713% for 8-bit bitmap.]]>
