OF THE DISSERTATION Loop Quantization versus Fock Quantization of p-Form Electromagnetism on Static Spacetimes

Proposes an efficient vector quantization (VQ) technique called sequential scalar quantization (SSQ). The scalar components of the vector are individually quantized in a sequence, with the quantization of each component utilizing conditional information from the quantization of previous components. Unlike conventional independent scalar quantization (ISQ), SSQ has the ability to exploit interco...

In this paper we propose a method for computing JPEG quantization matrices for a given mean square error or PSNR. Then, we employ our method to compute JPEG standard progressive operation mode definition scripts using a quantization approach. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to use a trial and error procedure to obtain a desired PSNR and/or definition script, reducing cost. Firstly, we esta...

Vector quantization aims to form new vectors/matrices with shared values close to the original. It could compress data with acceptable information loss, and could be of great usefulness in areas like Image Processing, Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning. In recent years, the importance of quantization has been soaring as it has been discovered huge potentials in deploying practical neural ...
