新一代静止图像编码系统-JPEG2000

JPEG2000是最新制定的静止图像编码国际标准，JPEG2000不仅提供的率失真性能和主观图像质量优于原JPEG标准，而且在支持渐进图像传输、感兴趣区图像编码和抗误码性能上也优于传统的JPEG标准和其它编码方法。本文对JPEG2000系统的结构、特性以及其编码算法进行了分析，并给出JPEG2000与原JPEG标准的性能比较。

A High-Capacity Steganography Scheme for JPEG2000 Baseline System

Hiding capacity is very important for efficient covert communications. For JPEG2000 compressed images, it is necessary to enlarge the hiding capacity because the available redundancy is very limited. In addition, the bitstream truncation makes it difficult to hide information. In this paper, a high-capacity steganography scheme is proposed for the JPEG2000 baseline system, which uses bit-plane encoding procedure twice to solve the problem due to bitstream truncation. Moreover, embedding points and their intensity are determined in a well defined quantitative manner via redundancy evaluation to increase hiding capacity. The redundancy is measured by bit, which is different from conventional methods which adjust the embedding intensity by multiplying a visual masking factor. High volumetric data is embedded into bit-planes as low as possible to keep message integrality, but at the cost of an extra bit-plane encoding procedure and slightly changed compression ratio. The proposed method can be easily integrated into the JPEG2000 image coder, and the produced stego-bitstream can be decoded normally. Simulation shows that the proposed method is feasible, effective, and secure.      

JPEG2000 - choices and tradeoffs for encoders

A new and improved image coding standard, called JPEG2000, has been developed. JPEG2000 is the state-of-the-art image coding standard that results from the joint efforts of the International Standards Organization (ISO) and the International Telecommunications Union. In this article, we describe the most important parameters of this new standard and present several "tips and tricks" to help resolve the design tradeoffs that JPEG2000 application developers are likely to encounter in practice. The new standard outperforms the older JPEG standard by approximately 2 dB of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) for several images across all compression ratios. The JPEG2000's superiority from the previous standard largely depends on the standard's security aspects, interactive protocols and application program interfaces for network access, wireless transmission, wavelet transform, and embedded block coding with optimal truncation (EBCOT).     

On multirate optimality of JPEG2000 code stream.

Arguably, the most important and defining feature of the JPEG2000 image compression standard is its R-D optimized code stream of multiple progressive layers. This code stream is an interleaving of many scalable code streams of different sample blocks. In this paper, we reexamine the R-D optimality of JPEG2000 scalable code streams under an expected multirate distortion measure (EMRD), which is defined to be the average distortion weighted by a probability distribution of operational rates in a given range, rather than for one or few fixed rates. We prove that the JPEG2000 code stream constructed by embedded block coding of optimal truncation is almost optimal in the EMRD sense for uniform rate distribution function, even if the individual scalable code streams have nonconvex operational R-D curves. We also develop algorithms to optimize the JPEG2000 code stream for exponential and Laplacian rate distribution functions while maintaining compatibility with the JPEG2000 standard. Both of our analytical and experimental results lend strong support to JPEG2000 as a near-optimal scalable image codec in a fairly general setting.     

JPEG2000码率控制算法的改进

针对在低码率时，脚2000编码中存在大量计算冗余，提出一种快速有效算法，该算法通过查表法快速估计斜率值并找到最佳截断点，这样不仅避免了斜率值的浮点除法运算，而且在低码率时，大量码块编码过程被丢弃，因此使EBCOT中层1编码的计算量大大减少。实验结果表明，该算法比PCRD算法的编码时间及存储器开销都大幅度下降，而重构图像质量相当。     

JPEG2000算术编码器的改进算法与实现

作为新一代静止图像压缩标准的JPEG2000标准拥有压缩比高,支持多分辨率等优点。JPEG2000的编码方式采用了嵌入式码块编码(EBCOT)方式,在编码过程中采用了MQ算术编码。文中分析了它对内容单一、信息量少图像编解码的不足,针对这些不足提出了一种对MQ算术编码器流程的改进算法。这种算法提高了JPEG2000对简单图像压缩的PSNR值,使解码后的图像更加清晰。     

Wavelet-based scalable L-infinity-oriented compression.

Among the different classes of coding techniques proposed in literature, predictive schemes have proven their outstanding performance in near-lossless compression. However, these schemes are incapable of providing embedded L(infinity)-oriented compression, or, at most, provide a very limited number of potential L(infinity) bit-stream truncation points. We propose a new multidimensional wavelet-based L(infinity)-constrained scalable coding framework that generates a fully embedded L(infinity)-oriented bit stream and that retains the coding performance and all the scalability options of state-of-the-art L2-oriented wavelet codecs. Moreover, our codec instantiation of the proposed framework clearly outperforms JPEG2000 in L(infinity) coding sense.     

A VLSI architecture of JPEG2000 encoder

This paper proposes a VLSI architecture of JPEG2000 encoder, which functionally consists of two parts: discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and embedded block coding with optimized truncation (EBCOT). For DWT, a spatial combinative lifting algorithm (SCLA)-based scheme with both 5/3 reversible and 9/7 irreversible filters is adopted to reduce 50% and 42% multiplication computations, respectively, compared with the conventional lifting-based implementation (LBI). For EBCOT, a dynamic memory control (DMC) strategy of Tier-1 encoding is adopted to reduce 60% scale of the on-chip wavelet coefficient storage and a subband parallel-processing method is employed to speed up the EBCOT context formation (CF) process; an architecture of Tier-2 encoding is presented to reduce the scale of on-chip bitstream buffering from full-tile size down to three-code-block size and considerably eliminate the iterations of the rate-distortion (RD) truncation.
