Rate-Based versus Distortion-Based Optimal Joint Source-Channel Coding
- We consider a joint source-channel coding system that protects an embedded wavelet bitstream against noise using a finite family of channel codes with error detection and error c...

Omnidirectionally Balanced Multiwavelets for Vector Wavelet Transforms
Vector wavelet transforms for vector-valued fields can be implemented directly from multiwavelets; however, existing multiwavelets offer surprisingly poor performance for transfor...

Iterated Denoising for Image Recovery
In this paper we propose an algorithm for image recovery where completely lost blocks in an image/video-frame are recovered using spatial information surrounding these blocks. Our...

Quantizers with Uniform Encoders and Channel Optimized Decoders
Scalar quantizers with uniform encoders and channel optimized decoders are studied for uniform sources and binary symmetric channels. It is shown that the Natural Binary Code and ...

Diagnostically Lossless 3D Wavelet Compression for Digital Angiogram Video
A novel method for the compression of angiogram video sequences is presented. The approach is based on the idea that not all of an angiogram image will de diagnostically significa...

Codecell Contiguity in Optimal Fixed-Rate and Entropy-Constrained Network Scalar Quantizers
We consider the properties of optimal xed-rate and entropy-constrained scalar quantizers for nite alphabet sources. In particular, w econsider conditions under which the optimal s...

Globally Optimal Uneven Error-Protected Packetization of Scalable Code Streams
In this paper, we present a family of new algorithms for rate-fidelity optimal packetization of scalable source bit streams with uneven error protection. In the most general settin...

Joint Embedded Coding of Data and Grid Using First-Generation Wavelet Transforms
Many applications in a variety of scientific domains produce datasets that consist of a data field lying on a sampling grid that may not be uniformly spaced. However, progressive ...

Source Requantization: Successive Degradation and Bit Stealing
We consider source requantization in two forms -- successive degradation (i.e., source fidelity reduction) and bit stealing (i.e., information embedding) -when no forward planning...
