Abstract
An region of interest processing technique is to handle preferentially some part of an image dynamically according to region of interest of the users in JPEG2000 image. A small image is not important, but in a big image the specified region that the user indicated has to be handled preferentially because it takes long time to display the whole image. If the user indicates a region of the outline image, the browser masks the region and sends the mask information to the source that transmitted the image. The server which got the mask information preferentially sends the code blocks matching the masks. Here, quickly generating mask information is important, so, in this paper using predefined 48 mask patterns, selecting one of the patterns according to the distribution of ROI(Region-of-Interest) and background, we remarkably reduced the time computing the mask region. Blocks that the patterns are applied are the blocks mixed of ROI and background in a block. If a whole block is an ROI or a background, these patterns are not applied. As results, comparing to the method that precisely handles ROI and background, the quality is unsatisfactory but the processing time remarkably reduced.
