Geometric and Topological Lossy Compression of Dense Range Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a technique for lossy compression of dense range images. Two separate compression schemes are applied. The first scheme (geometric compression) reduces redundant geometric information by generating an adaptive 3D triangular mesh that approximates the shapes present in the original range image. Geometric compression is used for obtaining an efficient representation of the range image that allows further processing. The second compression scheme (topological compression) encodes the connectivity information contained in the triangular mesh. Topological compression is used for generating a compact representation suitable to be stored or transmitted. Both compression schemes avoid costly iterative optimization algorithms. Results with real range images are presented.

ON A LOSSY IMAGE COMPRESSION/RECONSTRUCTION METHOD BASED ON FUZZY RELATIONAL EQUATIONS
The pioneer work of image compression/reconstruction based onfuzzy relational equations (ICF) and the related works are introduced. TheICF regards an original image as a fuzzy relation by embedding the brightnesslevel into [0,1]. The compression/reconstruction of ICF correspond to thecomposition/solving inverse problem formulated on fuzzy relational equations.Optimizations of ICF can be consequ...
متن کاملImage compression effects in visual analysis
This study deals with the effects of lossy image compression in the visual analysis of remotely sensed images. The experiments consider two factors with interaction: the type of landscape and the degree of lossy compression. Three landscapes and two areas for each landscape (with different homogeneity) have been selected. For every of the six study area, color 1:5000 orthoimages have been submi...
متن کاملArithmetic Coding of a Lossless Contour-Based Representation of Label Images
We propose a new method for the encoding of label images (also known as segmentation maps or alpha planes) that are often used to identify object location in region-based image and video coders. The method is contour-based and lossless with a contour model composed of two parts: a contour graph describing the topology of the contour network and a directional chain code to deal with the geometri...
متن کاملEfficient Compression of Hyperspectral Images Using Optimal Compression Cube and Image Plane
Hyperspectral (HS) images (HSI) provide a vast amount of spatial and spectral information based on the high dimensionality of the pixels in a wide range of wavelengths. A HS image usually requires massive storage capacity, which demands high compression rates to save space with preservation of data integrity. HS image can be deemed as three dimensional data cube where different wavelengths (W )...

With the advent of cheap indoor RGB-D sensors, proper representation of piecewise planar depth images is crucial toward an effective compression method. Although there exist geometrical wavelets for optimal representation of piecewise constant and piecewise linear images (i.e. wedgelets and platelets), an adaptation to piecewise linear fractional functions which correspond to depth variation ov...
