A new quadtree predictive image coder
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new quadtree-based lossy image compression algorithm is introduced. One new feature is that one pixel in each quadtree block is predictively encoded while the remaining pixels are linearly predicted from this one and from pixels of previous blocks. Another is that the criteria for subdividing a block involves the reproduction error in each pixel, as opposed to the error energy for the entire block. Though the algorithm has very low complexity, its predictive nature gives it good rate/distortion performance and suppresses blocking artifacts. This paper describes the algorithm, shows the results of coding at .5 and .25 bits per pixel, and compares its peak signal-to-noise ratio with other methods.

Interframe Image Coding Using Quadtree for Motion Estimation
This paper presents a new structure for a low bit rate video coder. The new structure uses quadtree decomposition for motion estimation and compensation. This significantly reduces the computational complexity of the coding operation. The new coding scheme yields high subjective quality at bit rates compatible with RDSI channels. Simulations results demonstrate the effectiveness of the new coder.

This paper presents an embedded wavelet packet image coding algorithm which is based on context classification and quadtree ordering (CCAQO). To match up well with the quadtree-based embedded coder, a new cost function for the best basis selection is adopted in discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT). In addition, combined with the structure of the best wavelet packet basis, a complete quadtre...

A novel image coding scheme using wavelet transform is presented. The developed coding scheme prevents undesirable classifications of wavelet coefficients which arise from conventional quadtree based image coding. This is accomplished by pre-processing the wavelet coefficients. This pre-processing is based statistical distributions of the wavelet coefficients in subbands and the human visual sy...

With the advent of cheap indoor RGB-D sensors, proper representation of piecewise planar depth images is crucial toward an effective compression method. Although there exist geometrical wavelets for optimal representation of piecewise constant and piecewise linear images (i.e. wedgelets and platelets), an adaptation to piecewise linear fractional functions which correspond to depth variation ov...
