Maximal Locally Linear Similarity of Medical Images Based on Hierarchical DCT

In this paper, using hierarchical DCT, the notation maximal locally linear similarity (MLL similarity for short) is defined and discussed. The intention to the discussion is that MLL similarity can be used to construct a scheme of the vector quantization coding for medical images and images in other application areas
