I'm confused about wcompress maxloop what is exactly doing, is it like threshold?

[CR,BPP] = wcompress('c',X,'mask.wtc',meth,'maxloop', nbloop,'wname','haar');

Hi @Mohamed Sebaa,

According to the documentation of 'wcompress', the 'maxloop' property is defined as the "Maximum number of steps for the compression algorithm, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'maxloop' and a positive integer or Inf."

It controls the number of iterations that the compression algorithm performs. Hence it is not directly considered as a threshold.

The following MathWorks documentations can be referred:

Thanks.
