Perceptual optimization of image coding algorithms

چکیده
We show how a model of the human visual system (HVS) can be used for encoder based perceptual optimization of JPEG. The HVS model takes into account the effects of light sensitivity, frequency sensitivity, and masking effects and is based on a hierarchy of oriented band pass filters. The model can be used to calculate a local frequency sensitivity, which in turn can be used to calculate perceptual weighting factors for each DCT coefficient in every block in the image. The proposed method is not limited to DCT based coders but is applicable to other coding schemes as well. The weighting factors can be used for adaptive quantization matrix design and for adaptive thresholding. We introduce a refinement of the adaptive thresholding technique that we call soft thresholding.

Intelligent scalable image watermarking robust against progressive DWT-based compression using genetic algorithms
Image watermarking refers to the process of embedding an authentication message, called watermark, into the host image to uniquely identify the ownership. In this paper a novel, intelligent, scalable, robust wavelet-based watermarking approach is proposed. The proposed approach employs a genetic algorithm to find nearly optimal positions to insert watermark. The embedding positions coded as chr...

Compression can be done by lossy or lossless methods. The lossy methods have been used more widely than the lossless compression. Although, many methods for image compression have been proposed yet, the methods using intelligent skipping proper to the visual models has not been considered in the literature. Image inpainting refers to the application of sophisticated algorithms to replace lost o...
متن کاملOptimization of JPEG color image coding using a human visual system model
We introduce a new model that can be used in the perceptual optimization of standard color image coding algorithms (JPEG/MPEG). The human visual system model is based on a set of oriented filters and incorporates background luminance dependencies, luminance and chrominance frequency sensitivities, and luminance and chrominance masking effects. The main problem in using oriented filter-based mod...

متن کاملPer Unit Coding for Combined Economic Emission Load Dispatch using Smart Algorithms
This paper proposes per unit coding for combined economic emission load dispatch problem. In the proposed coding, it is possible to apply the percent effects of elements in any number and with high accuracy in objective function. In the proposed per unit coding, each function is transformed into per unit form based on its own maximum value and has a value from 0 to 1. In this paper, particle sw...
