Design and Analysis of a Forward-Adaptive Wavelet Image Coder
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a new wavelet image coder which is the forward-adaptive counterpart of the state-of-the-art backward-adaptive Estimation-Quantization coder. The variance field associated with the wavelet coefficients is estimated, lossily compressed, and transmitted as side information. Next, the wavelet coefficients are compressed using that side information. We optimize the resulting two-part coder based on an informationtheoretic analysis. The performance of the forwardand backward-adaptive compression algorithms is compared based on several numerical experiments.

An Adaptive Hierarchical Method Based on Wavelet and Adaptive Filtering for MRI Denoising
MRI is one of the most powerful techniques to study the internal structure of the body. MRI image quality is affected by various noises. Noises in MRI are usually thermal and mainly due to the motion of charged particles in the coil. Noise in MRI images also cause a limitation in the study of visual images as well as computer analysis of the images. In this paper, first, it is proved that proba...
متن کاملAdaptive wavelet packet basis selection for zerotree image coding
Image coding methods based on adaptive wavelet transforms and those employing zerotree quantization have been shown to be successful. We present a general zerotree structure for an arbitrary wavelet packet geometry in an image coding framework. A fast basis selection algorithm is developed; it uses a Markov chain based cost estimate of encoding the image using this structure. As a result, our a...

We report on the development of an adaptive wavelet image coder based on stack-run representation of the quantized coefficients. The coder works by selecting an optimal wavelet packet basis for the given image and encoding the quantization indices for significant coefficients and zero runs between coefficients using a 4-ary arithmetic coder. Due to the fact that our coder exploits the redundanc...
متن کاملAdaptive transforms for image coding using spatially varying wavelet packets
We introduce a novel, adaptive image representation using spatially varying wavelet packets (WPs), Our adaptive representation uses the fast double-tree algorithm introduced previously (Herley et al., 1993) to optimize an operational rate-distortion (R-D) cost function, as is appropriate for the lossy image compression framework. This involves jointly determining which filter bank tree (WP freq...
