C++ Implementation of LOCO-I algorithm

I need a C++ implementation of the LOCO-I algorithm: one method will encode (or perform the LOCO-I algorithm) a 16-bit grayscale image, and one method will decode (or perform the reverse LOCO-I algorithm) the encoded data back to the original. I do all work in Visual Studio, version 2010 is preferred. The best place to start for information is [login to view URL] However, a web search will reveal quite a few PDFs that can be used for reference. I will eventually incorporate this code into a larger project. Here are the specifications for the class and public methods. Class Name: CLoco-I // This method takes three arguments // nWidth is the width of the image in pixels // nHeight is the height of the image in pixels // Note that total pixels can be calculated by nWidth * nHeight // p16BitGrayPixels is the buffer containing 16-bit values, each of which represent a gray // pixel value. Note that the size of this buffer in bytes is the number of pixels * 2 // // Returns: The decorrelated, contextualized, and error corrected image data unsigned char *DoLocoIEncoding( int nWidth, int nHeight, unsigned char *p16BitGrayPixels ); // This method takes three arguments // nWidth is the width of the image in pixels // nHeight is the height of the image in pixels // Note that total pixels can be calculated by nWidth * nHeight // p16BitGrayPixelsProcessedByLocoIAlgorithm is the buffer containing 16-bit values, each of which // represent a gray. However, this data has already been processed by the LOCO-I algorithm // (decorrelated, contextualized, and error corrected image data) and needs to be returned to // pre-processed values. Note that the size of this buffer in bytes is the number of pixels * 2 // // Returns: The restored image data unsigned char *DoLocoIDecoding( int nWidth, int nHeight, unsigned char *p16BitGrayPixelsProcessedByLocoIAlgorithm ); Please note that this code has nothing to do with huffman or gzip. It is only the LOCO-I algorithm. All source code must be thoroughly commented. Source code should be formatted as follows: void function( int args ) { } Please use hungarian variable names as follows: Local: int nValue; double dNumber; float fNumber; char szBuffer[200]; Class members: int m_nValue; double m_dNumber; float m_fNumber; char m_szBuffer[200];
