A Very Low Bit Rate Algorithm Based on Hierarchical Subband Scanning
نویسندگان
چکیده
A very low bit rate algorithm based on hierarchical partition of subbands in the wavelet domain is proposed. The algorithm uses the set partitioning technique to sort the transformed coefficients. The threshold of each subband is calculated and the subbands scanning sequence is determined by the magnitude of the thresholds which establish a hierarchical scanning not only for the set of coefficients with large magnitude, but also for the subbands. The algorithm is less complex computationally than SPIHT and JPEG2000. Results show that the present algorithm provides good image quality for very low bit rates. Key-Words: Embedded coding, wavelet image coding, image coding, progressive transmission.

Efficient Coding of Image Subbands using Blockbased Modified SPIHT
Real time transmission of images through handheld mobile/portable devices require an image coding algorithm that performs best at very low bit rate. A number of very successful wavelet-based image coding algorithms have been proposed in the literature. These algorithms are mainly categorized into zerotree and zeroblock approaches. Zerotree algorithms make use of the inter-subband correlations e...

In this paper, a novel robust image-coding and adaptive-packetization algorithm suitable for very low bit-rate transport is suggested.

We present a novel object-based spatiotemporal (3-D) subband/wavelet coding scheme for very low bit-rate video compression. First, the image sequence is segmented into objects based on motion and color. The objects are then independently decomposed by sub-band/wavelet analysis, both in the temporal and spatial domain. The temporal analysis is greatly facilitated over existing methods by the obj...

A new method for lossless coding of the classiication table in low bit rate subband image coders with block-wise classiication is proposed. The method is referred to as hierarchical enumeration and uses an algorithmic enumeration technique to associate a xed-length unique binary code-word with each possible combination of integers deening the classiication table. The resulting bit rate is less ...
