Error Resilient DCT Image Coding with Pre/Post-filtering and Wiener Filtering
نویسندگان
چکیده
A pre/post-filtering framework for DCT image coding has been proposed recently. Together with Wiener filtering technique, the new framework has been investigated for error resilient image coding. In this paper, after a review of existing methods, we analyze the limitation associated with one of the current design criteria, the reconstruction gain, and propose an alternative that offers better control of the error distribution, thereby improving the visual quality of the reconstructed image in the presence of transmission error. The performance of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through various multiple description coding (MDC) simulations.

Efficient block-based video encoder embedding a Wiener filter for noisy video sequences
Since pre-filtering removes camera noise and improves coding efficiency dramatically, its efficient implementation has been an important issue in video sequence coding. Based on the approximated generalized Wiener filtering and two-dimensional discrete cosine transform (DCT) factorization, this paper introduces a novel pre-filtering scheme that is performed inside a video encoder. The proposed ...
متن کاملReduction of Blocking Artifacts of DCT Compressed Image Based on Block Wiener Filtering
In this paper, a novel de-blocking algorithm is proposed, using block wiener filtering, shift and weighted average operations. The of block boundary occurs by a mixture of the shift and average operations. However, visually annoying artifacts are visible around the edge region in highly compressed images. In the proposed method, the wiener attenuation coefficients are given based on the expecte...
متن کاملLoop-Filtering and Post-Filtering for Low Bit-Rates Moving Picture Coding
The decompressed images from highly compressed data have noticeable image degradations such as blocking artifacts, corner outliers, and ringing noise, because most image coding standards quantize the DCT coefficients of 8×8-pixel blocks independently. A loopfiltering algorithm and a post-filtering algorithm, which can reduce the quantization effects, are described, and the performances of both ...
متن کاملGeological noise removal in geophysical magnetic survey to detect unexploded ordnance based on image filtering
This paper describes the application of three straightforward image-based filtering methods to remove the geological noise effect which masks unexploded ordnances (UXOs) magnetic signals in geophysical surveys. Three image filters comprising of mean, median and Wiener are used to enhance the location of probable UXOs when they are embedded in a dominant background geological noise. The study ar...

Objective(s): In order to evaluate the effect of post-reconstruction Gaussian filtering on image quality and myocardial blood flow (MBF) measurement by dynamic N-13 ammonia positron emission tomography (PET), we compared various reconstruction and filtering methods with image characteristics. Methods: Dynamic PET images of three patients with coronary artery disease (male-female ratio of 2:1; a...
