We propose a high-performance, nonlinear, loop filter that reduces quantization noise over video frames composed of locally uniform regions (smooth, high frequency, texture, etc.)...
Classical linear wavelet representations of images have the drawback that they are not well-suited to represent edge information. To overcome this problem, nonlinear multiresoluti...
A new color quantization (CQ) technique and its VLSI implementation is introduced. It is based on image split into windows and uses Kohonen Self Organized Neural Network Classifie...
Data compression is one way to alleviate the 1/0bottleneck problem faced by I/O-intensive applications such as databases. However, this approach is not widely used because of the ...
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...
