Wavelet-based video codec using human visual system coefficients for 3G mobiles
A new wavelet based video codec that uses human visual system coefficients is presented. In INTRA mode of operation, wavelet transform is used to split the input frame into a number of subbands. Human Visual system coefficients are designed for handheld videophone devices and used to regulate the quantization stepsize in the pixel quantization of the high frequency subbandsâ coefficients. The quantized coefficients are coded using quadtreecoding scheme. In the INTER mode of operation, the displaced frame difference is generated and a wavelet transform decorrelates it into a number of subbands. These subbands are coded using adaptive vector quantization scheme. Results indicate a significant improvement in frame quality compared to motion JPEG200
Generative Compression
Traditional image and video compression algorithms rely on hand-crafted
encoder/decoder pairs (codecs) that lack adaptability and are agnostic to the
data being compressed. Here we describe the concept of generative compression,
the compression of data using generative models, and suggest that it is a
direction worth pursuing to produce more accurate and visually pleasing
reconstructions at much deeper compression levels for both image and video
data. We also demonstrate that generative compression is orders-of-magnitude
more resilient to bit error rates (e.g. from noisy wireless channels) than
traditional variable-length coding schemes
Data compression in remote sensing applications
A survey of current data compression techniques which are being used to reduce the amount of data in remote sensing applications is provided. The survey aspect is far from complete, reflecting the substantial activity in this area. The purpose of the survey is more to exemplify the different approaches being taken rather than to provide an exhaustive list of the various proposed approaches
Digital compression algorithms for HDTV transmission
Digital compression of video images is a possible avenue for high definition television (HDTV) transmission. Compression needs to be optimized while picture quality remains high. Two techniques for compression the digital images are explained and comparisons are drawn between the human vision system and artificial compression techniques. Suggestions for improving compression algorithms through the use of neural and analog circuitry are given
