UNEQUAL-LENGTH BASIS FUNCTIONS Trac D. Tran Truong Q. Nguyen University of Wisconsin, ECE Department 1415 Engineering Dr., Madison WI 53706 [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT In this paper, the theory, design, and implementation of the Generalized Lapped Orthogonal Transform (GenLOT) with unequal-length basis functions are investigated. Necessary constraints on the building blocks which lead to the reduction of the degrees of design freedom is explained along with other trade-o s. Our main motivation of the new transform is its application in block-based image coding. Besides having all of the attractive properties of other lapped orthogonal transforms, this new class of GenLOT takes advantage of its long basis functions to reconstruct smooth signal and to reduce blocking artifacts, while its short basis functions are used to represent edges and reduce ringing. Design and image coding examples are presented to con rm the validity of the theory.

The Variable-Length Generalized Lapped Biorthogonal Transform
This paper introduces a class of linear phase lapped biorthogonal transforms with basis functions of variable length (VLGLBT). The transform can be characterized by a lattice which structurally enforces both linear phase and perfect reconstruction properties as well as provides a fast and e cient transform implementation.

In this paper, the theory, structure, design, and implementation of a new class of linear-phase paraunitary filter banks (LPPUFB’s) are investigated. The novel filter banks with filters of different lengths can be viewed as the generalized lapped orthogonal transforms (GenLOT’s) with variable-length basis functions. Our main motivation is the application in blocktransform-based image coding. Be...
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 کاملThe Orientation Adaptive Lapped Orthogonal Transform for Image Coding
In this paper, a lapped orthogonal transform adapted for local directionality of an image is proposed and its application in adaptive image coding is presented. First, we address the problem to construct the lapped orthogonal transform with short and long functions such that the long functions are twice the length of the short functions, and derive the transform with the optimal short functions...
متن کاملThe GenLOT: generalized linear-phase lapped orthogonal transform
The general factorization of a linear-phase paraunitary filter bank (LPPUFB) is revisited. From this new perspective, a class of lapped orthogonal transforms with extended overlap (generalized linear-phase lapped orthogonal transforms (GenLOT’s)) is developed as a subclass of the general class of LPPUFB. In this formulation, the discrete cosine transform (DCT) is the order-1 GenLOT, the lapped ...
