基于小波域空间树结构的合成孔径雷达图像压缩

空间树结构SOT(Spatial-Orientation Tree)在基于小波的SAR图像压缩中扮演着及其重要的角色,包括EZW(Embedded Zero-tree Wavelet)和SPIHT(Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees)的图像压缩编码方法,都利用了SOT中的父子关系。斑点噪声的存在,严重降低了SAR图像的质量和可压缩性。作为研究不同分辨率小波系数的空间相关性的非常有效的数据结构,SOT在斑点噪声去除中并没有得到很好的利用。提出一种新的SAR图像压缩方法,该方法结合基于SOT结构的斑点噪声去除和EZW嵌入式零树编码算法,对机载合成孔径雷达图像压缩实验的结果显示,该方法优于JPEG和标准EZW算法。     

Data compression with spherical wavelets and wavelets for the image-based relighting

Image based relighting (IBL) solves the illumination control problem in the image-based modelling and rendering. However, it trades a drastic increase of storage requirement caused by the tremendous reference images pre-captured under various illumination conditions. In this paper, we propose a spherical wavelet transform and wavelet transform (SWT–WLT) based approach to compress the huge IBL dataset. Two major steps are involved. First, the spherical wavelet transform (SWT) is used to reduce the correlation between different reference images. Second, wavelet transform (WLT) is applied to compress those SW transformed images (SWT images). Due to the locality of SWT and WLT, the proposed method inherits an advantage of low memory requirement, hence, it is suitable for compressing arbitrarily large dataset. Using its integer format implementation this method can be further sped up with the help of bit shift operation. Simulations are given to evaluate its good features.     

HEALPIX DCT technique for compressing PCA-based illumination adjustable images

An illumination adjustable image (IAI), containing a set of pre-captured reference images under various light directions, represents the appearance of a scene with adjustable illumination. One of drawbacks of using the IAI representation is that an IAI consumes a lot of memory. Although some previous works proposed to use blockwise principal component analysis for compressing IAIs, they did not consider the spherical nature of the extracted eigen-coefficients. This paper utilizes the spherical nature of the extracted eigen-coefficients to improve the compression efficiency. Our compression scheme consists of two levels. In the first level, the reference images are converted into a few eigen-images (floating point images) and a number of eigen-coefficients. In the second level, the eigen-images are compressed by a wavelet-based method. The eigen-coefficients are organized into a number of spherical functions. Those spherical coefficients are then compressed by the proposed HEALPIX discrete cosine transform technique.

基于矢量量化的嵌入式零树小波改进编码方法

基于矢量量化的SOFM算法和嵌入式零树小波算法(EZW)如今已经广泛的被使用于图像压缩领域,均被认为是非常有效的压缩编码技术。矢量量化方法压缩比较高,但往往存在分块效应,而EZW算法在高压缩比情况下存在恢复的图像质量较差的问题,提出一种基于矢量量化的嵌入式零树小波方法,它的基本原理是引入差值图像思想,先对原图像做矢量量化,再将原图像与矢量量化的恢复图像求差值图像,差值图像经过小波分解以后会存在大量为0的小波系数,再利用EZW编码,帮助提高重建图像质量。实验表明,相对于EZW和JPEG2000算法,本文算法的压缩比和编码质量均有显著提高。     

Compression technique for compressed sensing hyperspectral images

The compressed sensing (CS) theorem is a novel sampling approach that breaks through the conventional Nyquist sampling limit and brings a revolution in the field of signal processing. This article investigates the compression technique for CS hyperspectral images so as to illustrate the superiority provided by this new theorem. First, several comparative experiments are used to reveal that the drawback of prior compression techniques, designed for the data acquired by the conventional hyperspectral imaging system, is either low compression ratio or a waste of sampling resource. After a condensed analysis, we state that the CS theorem provides the probability of avoiding such defects. Then a straightforward scheme, which takes advantage of spectral correlation, is proposed to compress the CS hyperspectral images to reduce the data size further. Moreover, a flexible recovery strategy is designed to speed up the reconstruction of original bands from the corresponding CS images. The experimental results based on the actual hyperspectral images have demonstrated the efficiency of this proposed technique.

An evolutionary lion optimization algorithm‐based image compression technique for biomedical applications

Recently, medical image compression becomes essential to effectively handle large amounts of medical data for storage and communication purposes. Vector quantization (VQ) is a popular image compression technique, and the commonly used VQ model is Linde–Buzo–Gray (LBG) that constructs a local optimal codebook to compress images. The codebook construction was considered as an optimization problem, and a bioinspired algorithm was employed to solve it. This article proposed a VQ codebook construction approach called the L2‐LBG method utilizing the Lion optimization algorithm (LOA) and Lempel Ziv Markov chain Algorithm (LZMA). Once LOA constructed the codebook, LZMA was applied to compress the index table and further increase the compression performance of the LOA. A set of experimentation has been carried out using the benchmark medical images, and a comparative analysis was conducted with Cuckoo Search‐based LBG (CS‐LBG), Firefly‐based LBG (FF‐LBG) and JPEG2000. The compression efficiency of the presented model was validated in terms of compression ratio (CR), compression factor (CF), bit rate, and peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR). The proposed L2‐LBG method obtained a higher CR of 0.3425375 and PSNR value of 52.62459 compared to CS‐LBG, FA‐LBG, and JPEG2000 methods. The experimental values revealed that the L2‐LBG process yielded effective compression performance with a better‐quality reconstructed image.

一种基于网格编码量化的高光谱图像无损压缩方法

由于遥感图像的数据量非常庞大,给有限的存储空间和传输带宽带来很大的压力,同时,由于高光谱图像获取代价昂贵,具有广泛的应用领域,且压缩时一般不能丢失任何信息,即要求无损压缩,因此没有有效的压缩方法,高光谱图像的普及应用将受到极大的限制.网格编码量化（TCQ）借鉴了网格编码调制（TCM）中信号集合扩展、信号集合划分和网格状态转移的思想,其虽具有良好的均方误差（MSE）性能,而且计算复杂度适中,但目前TCQ主要被应用于图像的有损压缩,为了对高光谱图像进行有效的无损压缩,通过将TCQ引入高光谱图像的无损压缩,并根据高光谱图像的特点,提出了一种基于小波变换和TCQ的高光谱图像无损压缩方法.实验结果表明,与JPEG2000和JPEG-LS中无损压缩算法相比,该算法对高光谱图像具有更好的压缩性能.

调制带宽转换器(Modulated Wideband Converter,MWC)是针对稀疏多频带信号提出的一种有效的亚奈奎斯特采样方法。实际的MWC设计过程中需要考虑硬件实现、重构精度等问题,不可避免地会导致采样数据中存在一定的冗余。该文首次对MWC系统产生采样冗余的原因以及采样数据特点进行深入分析,并提出了一种基于主成分分析(principal component analysis, PCA)的MWC采样数据压缩方法。该方法首先对MWC采样数据进行PCA变换,将其中的大部分能量集中在少量的主成分中,进而通过保留少量主成分,并对其进行进一步量化编码的方式来实现对MWC采样数据的压缩。实验结果表明,PCA变换对MWC采样数据的能量集中效果优于小波变换和离散余弦变换,且该压缩方法能够在保证重构精度高于90%的前提下将MWC系统的采样数据量压缩至原来的1/8以下。     

A framework for inverse tone mapping

In recent years many tone mapping operators (TMOs) have been presented in order to display high dynamic range images (HDRI) on typical display devices. TMOs compress the luminance range while trying to maintain contrast. The inverse of tone mapping, inverse tone mapping, expands a low dynamic range image (LDRI) into an HDRI. HDRIs contain a broader range of physical values that can be perceived by the human visual system. We propose a new framework that approximates a solution to this problem. Our framework uses importance sampling of light sources to find the areas considered to be of high luminance and subsequently applies density estimation to generate an expand map in order to extend the range in the high luminance areas using an inverse tone mapping operator. The majority of today’s media is stored in the low dynamic range. Inverse tone mapping operators (iTMOs) could thus potentially revive all of this content for use in high dynamic range display and image based lighting (IBL). Moreover, we show another application that benefits quick capture of HDRIs for use in IBL.
