We present a novel 3-D scalable compression method for medical images with optimized volume of interest (VOI) coding. The method is presented within the framework of interactive te...

—Several techniques based on the three–dimensional (3-D) discrete cosine transform (DCT) have been proposed for volumetric data coding. These techniques fail to provide lossles...
Concavity trees have been known for quite some time as structural descriptors of 2-D shape; however, they haven’t been explored further until recently. This paper shows how 2-D s...
The lossless entropy coding used in many image coding schemes often is overlooked as most research is based around the lossy stages of image compression. This paper examines the r...
Compression ratio and computational complexity are two major factors for a successful image coder. By exploring the Laplacian distribution of the wavelet coefficients, a new bit ...
