New memory-efficient hardware architecture of 2-D dual-mode lifting-based discrete wavelet transform for JPEG2000

[[abstract]]This work presents new algorithms and hardware architectures to improve the critical issues of the 2-D dual-mode (supporting 5/3 lossless and 9/7 lossy coding) lifting-based discrete wavelet transform (LDWT). The proposed 2-D dual-mode LDWT architecture has the advantages of low-transpose memory, low latency, and regular signal flow, which is suitable for VLSI implementation. The transpose memory requirement of the N ?? N 2-D 5/3 mode LDWT is 2N, and that of 2-D 9/7 mode LDWT is 4N. According to the comparison results, the proposed hardware architecture surpasses previous architectures in the aspects of lifting-based low-transpose memory size. It can be applied to real-time visual operations such as JPEG2000, MPEG-4 still texture object decoding, and wavelet-based scalable video coding.[[notice]]需補會議日期、性質、主辦單位[[conferencedate]]20081119~2008112

Complexity Reduction and Fast Algorithm for 2-D Integer Discrete Wavelet Transform Using Symmetric Mask-Based Scheme

[[abstract]]Wavelet coding has been shown to be better than discrete cosine transform (DCT) in image/video processing. Moreover, it has the feature of scalability, which is involved in modern video standards. This work presents novel algorithms, namely 2-D symmetric mask-based discrete wavelet transform (SMDWT), to improve the critical issue of the 2-D lifting-based discrete wavelet transform (LDWT), and then obtains the benefit of low latency, high-speed operation, and low temporal memory. The SMDWT also has the advantages of high-performance embedded periodic extension boundary treatment, reduced complexity, regular signal coding, short critical path, reduced latency time, and independent subband coding processing. Moreover, the 2-D lifting-based DWT performance can also be easily improved by exploiting appropriate parallel method inherently in SMDWT. Comparing with the normal 2-D 5/3 integer lifting-based DWT the proposed method significantly improves lifting-based latency and complexity in 2-D DWT without degradation in image quality. The algorithm can be applied to real-time image/video applications, such as JPEG2000, MPEG-4 still texture object decoding, and wavelet-based Scalable Video Coding (SVC).[[sponsorship]]IEEE Computer Society, U.S.A.[[notice]]需補會議地點[[conferencetype]]國際[[conferencedate]]20071210~2007121

An Efficient Design Approach of ROI Based DWT Using Vedic and Wallace Tree Multiplier on FPGA Platform

In digital image processing, the compression mechanism is utilized to enhance the visual perception and storage cost. By using hardware architectures, reconstruction of medical images especially Region of interest (ROI) part using Lossy image compression is a challenging task. In this paper, the ROI Based Discrete wavelet transformation (DWT) using separate Wallace- tree multiplier (WM) and modified Vedic Multiplier (VM) methods are designed. The Lifting based DWT method is used for the ROI compression and reconstruction. The 9/7 filter coefficients are multiplied in DWT using Wallace- tree multiplier (WM) and modified Vedic Multiplier (VM). The designed Wallace tree multiplier works with the parallel mechanism using pipeline architecture results with optimized hardware resources, and 8x8 Vedic multiplier designs improves the ROI reconstruction image quality and fast computation. To evaluate the performance metrics between ROI Based DWT-WM and DWT-VM on FPGA platform, The PSNR and MSE are calculated for different Brain MRI images, and also hardware constraints include Area, Delay, maximum operating frequency and power results are tabulated. The proposed model is designed using Xilinx platform using Verilog-HDL and simulated using ModelSim and Implemented on Artix-7 FPGA device
