In this paper, new intra and inter shape coding algorithms are proposed. The new algorithms are based on chain code. Chain code of an object's contour can be divided into several segments by the smooth contour characteristic. By this property, some techniques can be used for the proposed intra and inter shape coding algorithms. In intra mode, each segment is encoded by specific codes, and the decoding result is lossless. Compared with MPEG-4, M4R, DCC and chain code, the compression ratio is improved. Besides, a new coding scheme is proposed for the inter shape coding. It includes finding break points in a series of chain code, correlation between break points and fine scaling with a tolerant threshold between two similar chain code segments. By detecting the segments, break points can be found. The correlation is performed by computing the curvature difference between break points and contour points. The scaling is a technique for extending or shrinking a segment of chain code. Experimental results show that in the condition of high quality or low bit rate our proposed inter shape coding algorithm obtains better performance than MPEG-4 in compression.
