Rate/distortion-based combination of multiple DCT transforms for video coding

چکیده

This paper proposes some early results concerning the combination of Discrete Cosine Transforms (DCTs) of multiple sizes in a video encoder. The main difficulty consists in finding a way to obtain a fair competition between several transforms. For that purpose, we derive that the quantization of all transformed coefficients regardless of the DCT size with the same uniform linear quantizer allows to obtain an equivalent level of distortion among all transforms. The selection of the best transform on a particular image area is then made by a rate/distortion framework, which jointly optimizes motion and residual signal coding. Systematic objective and subjective improvements are observed when compared to using a single DCT size.

Layered DCT Still Image Compression - Circuits and Systems for Video Technology, IEEE Transactions on

Motivated by Shapiro’s embedded zerotree wavelet (EZW) coding and Taubman and Zakhor’s layered zero coding (LZC), we propose a layered discrete cosine transform (DCT) image compression scheme, which generates an embedded bit stream for DCT coefficients according to their importance. The new method allows progressive image transmission and simplifies the rate-control problem. In addition to thes...

Integer fast lapped transforms based on direct-lifting of DCTs for lossy-to-lossless image coding

The discrete cosine transforms (DCTs) have found wide applications in image/video compression (image coding). DCT-based lapped transforms (LTs), called fast LTs (FLTs), overcome blocking artifacts generated at low bit rate image coding by DCT while keeping fast implementation. This paper presents a realization of more effective integer FLT (IntFLT) for lossy-to-lossless image coding, which is u...
