Source/Channel Coding of Still Images Using Lapped Transforms and Block Classification
نویسنده
چکیده
A novel scheme for joint source/channel coding of still images is proposed. By using efficient lapped transforms, channel-optimized robust quantizers and classification methods we show that significant improvements over traditional source/channel coding of images can be obtained while keeping the complexity low.

Robust still image coding using lapped transforms with block classification
Very efficient still image compression methods exist today, but most of them are not fit for transmission on error prone channels. One example of state-of-the-art robust image coding is the use of wavelet compression followed by forward error correction (FEC), as proposed by Sherwood and Zeger, that gives high coding efficiency but suffers from the incomplete decoding problem. An alternative to...
متن کاملFast downscaled inverses for images compressed with M-channel lapped transforms
Compressed images may be decompressed and displayed or printed using different devices at different resolutions. Full decompression and rescaling in space domain is a very expensive method. We studied downscaled inverses where the image is decompressed partially, and a reduced inverse transform is used to recover the image. In this fashion, fewer transform coefficients are used and the synthesi...
متن کاملDownscaled inverses for M-channel lapped transforms
Compressed images may be decompressed for devices using di erent resolutions. Full decompression and rescaling in space domain is a very expensive method. We studied downscaled inverses where the image is decompressed partially and a reduced inverse transform is used to recover the image. We studied the design of fast inverses, for a given forward transform. General solutions are presented for ...
متن کاملExtended lapped transforms: properties, applications, and fast algorithms
The family of lapped orthogonal transforms is extended to include basis functions of arbitrary length. Within this new family, the extended lapped transform (ELT) is introduced, as a generalization of the previously reported modulated lapped transform (MLT). Design techniques and fast algorithms for the ELT are presented, as well as examples that demonstrate the good performance of the ELT in s...
متن کاملInteger lapped transforms and their applications to image coding
This paper proposes new integer approximations of the lapped transforms, called the integer lapped transforms (ILT), and studies their applications to image coding. The ILT are derived from a set of orthogonal sinusoidal transforms having short integer coefficients, which can be implemented with simple integer arithmetic. By employing the same scaling constants in these integer sinusoidal trans...
