A Scalable to Lossless Audio Compression Scheme
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper outlines a scalable to lossless coder, that is the coder presented is a scalable coder that scales from lossy quality to lossless quality. Lossless compression is achieved by concatenating a lossy, scalable transform coder with a scalable scheme for the compression of the synthesis error signal. The lossless compression results obtained are comparable with the state of the art in lossless compression (that is a compression ratio ranging from 1.74 to 5.27). The added advantage of the compression scheme presented is the scalability, which is obtained by basing the lossy coder on the Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm.

Multi-rate and multi-resolution scalable to lossless audio compression using PSPIHT
This paper presents a scalable to lossless compression scheme that allows scalability in terms of sampling rate as well as quantization resolution. The scheme presented is perceptually scalable and it also allows lossless compression. The scheme produces smooth objective scalability, in terms of SNR, until lossless compression is achieved. The scheme is built around the perceptual SPIHT algorit...
متن کاملA Scalable Watermarking Scheme for the Scalable Audio
—In this paper, we describe a scalable (i.e., lossless-to-lossy) watermarking scheme which overcomes the problem of non-invertible distortion introduced by the watermark signal. The scheme is based on a standardized scalable audio coder [9] – as a result, the embedded watermark inherits the scalability of the audio coder. We elaborate how the scalability can be used to realize the recovery of t...

MPEG-4 Scalable Lossless Coding (SLS) is one of the latest extensions to the MPEG-4 audio coding standard. It provides a scalable lossless extension of the well-known MPEG4 AAC codec. The lossless enhancement is performed in a finegrain scalable way, starting from the AAC core signal in small steps all the way up to a numerically lossless representation, thus also including near-lossless compre...

This papers presents an embedded fine grain scalable perceptual and lossless audio coding scheme. The enabling technology for this combined perceptual and lossless audio coding approach is the Integer Modified Discrete Cosine Transform (IntMDCT), which is an integer approximation of the MDCT based on the lifting scheme. It maintains the perfect reconstruction property and therefore enables effi...
