Robust image and video coding with pyramid vector quantisation

چکیده
Most current image and video coding standards use variable length codes to achieve compression, which renders the compressed bitstream very sensitive to channel errors. In this paper, image and video coders based on Pyramid Vector Quantisation (PVQ) and using only fixed length codes are proposed. Still image coders using PVQ in conjunction with DCT and wavelet techniques are described and their robustness to random channel errors are investigated. This work is then extended to video coding. A novel fixed rate motion compensated waveletPVQ video coder suitable for low bit-rate applications and generating only fixed length codewords is presented. Its compression performance and robustness to random bit errors is compared with H.263.

متن کاملScalable image coding using Gaussian pyramid vector quantisation with resolution-independent block size
We present a new approach to multiresolution vector quantisation. Its main advantage is exploitation of long-range correlations in the image by keeping vector size constant, independent of the image scale. We also developed a variable block-rate version of the algorithm, which allows better utilisation of the available bit budget by re ning only those areas of the image which are not e ciently ...
متن کاملHybrid 3D Fractal Coding with Neighbourhood Vector Quantisation
A hybrid 3D compression scheme which combines fractal coding with neighbourhood vector quantisation for video and volume data is reported. While fractal coding exploits the redundancy present in different scales, neighbourhood vector quantisation, as a generalisation of translational motion compensation, is a useful method for removing both intraand interframe coherences. The hybrid coder outpe...
متن کاملRobust Content-Based Digital Image Watermarking Scheme in Steerable Pyramid Domain
In the digital world in which we are living, the intellectual property protection becomes a concern especially with the proliferation of files transfer over networks. The ability to access data such as text, images, video, and audio has become quicker and easier for people with little to no knowledge of technology. In this paper, a robust watermarking scheme based on the original image content ...
متن کاملA Fast Index Assignment Method for Robust Vector Quantisation of Image Data
Vector quantisation is a widely used technique in low-bit rate coding of speech and image data, but is highly sensitive to noise in the transmission channel. If the reference vector recalled by a corrupted index di ers greatly from the intended reference vector, image quality can be degraded quite dramatically. The index assignment (IA) process attempts to re-order the code book so as to minimi...
