A two layer coding algorithm for high dynamic range images is discussed. In the first layer, a low dynamic range image is encoded by a conventional codec, and then the residual in...
In this paper, we present a new entropy coder, Contextbased Bit Plane Golomb Coder (CB-BPGC) for scalable image coding, which achieves better coding performance with lower complex...
Scalability and others functionalities such as the Region of Interest encoding become essential properties of an efficient image coding scheme. Within the framework of lossless co...
The quantization parameter (QP) has a very important impact on the compression rate in H.264. In this paper we show that in order to achieve efficient rate-control coding a good e...
We investigate the usage of edge-based inpainting as an intra prediction method in block-based image compression. The joint utilization of edge information and the well-known Lapl...
