Direct Huffman Coding And Decoding Using The Table Of Code-Lengths
نویسنده
چکیده
A new Huffman coding and decoding technique is presented. There is no need to construct a full size Huffman table in this technique; instead, the symbols are encoded directly from the table of code-lengths. For decoding purposes a new Condensed Huffman Table (CHT) is also introduced. It is shown that by employing this technique both encoding and decoding operations become significantly faster, and the memory consumption also becomes much smaller compare to the normal Huffman coding/decoding.

Efficient Representation and Decoding of Static Huffman Code Tables in a Very Low Bit Rate Environment
The lossless entropy coding used in many image coding schemes often is overlooked as most research is based around the lossy stages of image compression. This paper examines the relative merits of using static Huffman coding with a compact optimal table verses more sophisticated adaptive arithmetic methods. For very low bit rate image compression, the computationally simple Huffman method is sh...
متن کاملJoint Source-Channel Decoding of JPEG Images using Error Resilient Source Codes
Iterative decoding of JPEG images does not perform well due to the poor distance property of the original JPEG Huffman codes. We propose a symmetric RVLC with large free distance which can dramatically improve the system performance when iterative decoding is performed. Simulation results indicate up to 4 dB coding gain is achievable. There is a significant body of literature (see references in...
متن کاملDecoding prefix codes
Minimum-redundancy prefix codes have been a mainstay of research and commercial compression systems since their discovery by David Huffman more than 50 years ago. In this experimental evaluation we compare techniques for decoding minimum-redundancy codes, and quantify the relative benefits of recently developed restricted codes that are designed to accelerate the decoding process. We find that ...

Algorithms for encoding and decoding finite strings over a finite alphabet are described. The coding operations are arithmetic involving rational numbers li as parameters such that Zi2"i 5 2". This coding technique requires no blocking, and the per-symbol length of the encoded string approaches the associated entropy within E . The coding speed is comparable to that of conventional coding metho...
متن کاملUsing Multiple Huffman Code Tables for Optimal Coding of DCT Blocks
It is a well-known observation that when a DCT block is traversed in zigzag order, the AC coefficients generally decrease in size and the run-length of zero coefficients increase in number. Therefore, use of a single AC Huffman code table in the JPEG baseline algorithm leads to sub-optimal coding, and it is desirable to use multiple code tables, one for each DCT coefficient position, if necessa...
