Purpose : To determine the proper image compression method and ratio without image quality degradation in intraoral digital radiographic images, comparing the discrete cosine transform (DCT)-based JPEG with the wavelet-based JPEG 2000 algorithm. Materials and Methods : Thirty extracted sound teeth and thirty extracted teeth with occlusal caries were used for this study. Twenty plaster blocks were made with three teeth each. They were radiographically exposed using CDR sensors (Schick Inc., Long Island, USA). Digital images were compressed to JPEG format, using Adobe Photoshop v.7.0 and JPEG 2000 format using Jasper program with compression ratios of 5 : 1,9 : 1, 14 : 1,28 : 1 each. To evaluate the lesion detectability, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed by the three oral and maxillofacial radiologists. To evaluate the image quality, all the compressed images were assessed subjectively using 5 grades, in comparison to the original uncompressed images. Results: Compressed images up to compression ratio of 14 : 1 in JPEG and 28 : 1 in JPEG 2000 showed nearly the same the lesion detectability as the original images. In the subjective assessment of image quality, images up to compression ratio of 9 : 1 in JPEG and 14 : 1 in JPEG 2000 showed minute mean paired differences from the original Images. Conclusion : The results showed that the clinically acceptable compression ratios were up to 9 : 1 for JPEG and 14 : 1 for JPEG 2000. The wavelet-based JPEG 2000 is a better compression method, comparing to DCT-based JPEG for intraoral digital radiographic images.

The Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) is a standara still-image compression technique, established by the International for Standardization (ISO) and International Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITUT). The standard is intended to be utilized in the various kinds of color still imaging systems as a standard color image coding format. Because JPEG is a lossy compression, the decompressed image pixel values are nto the same as values before compression. Image of JPEG compression is often made to JPEG recompression at saving to apply JPEG compression of color image. In general, JPEG is a lossy compression and compression image is predicted to be varied image quality according to recompressed Q-factor. Various distortions of JPEG compression and JPEG recompression has been reported in previous paper. In this paper, we compress four difference color samples (photo image, gradient image, vector drawing image, text image) according to various Q-factor, and then compressed images are recompressed according to various Q-factor once again. As the results, we inspect variation of quality and file size of recompressed color image, and ensure the optimum recompression factor.

The standard is intended to be utilized in the various kinds of color still imaging systems as a standard color image coding format. Because JPEG is a lossy compression, the decompressed image pixel values are not the same as the value before compression. Various distortions of JPEG compression and JPEG recompression has been reported in various papers. The Image compressed by JPEG is often recompressed by same type compression method in JPEG. In general, JPEG is a lossy compression and the quality of compressed image is predicted that is varied in according to recompression Q-factor. In this paper, four difference color samples(photo image, gradient image, gradient image, vector drawing image, text image) were compressed in according to various Q-factor, and then the compressed images were recompressed according to various Q-factor once again. As the result, this paper evaluate the variation of image quality and file size in JPEG recompression and recommed the optimum recompression factor.

디지털 워터마킹은 디지털 컨텐츠의 저작권을 보호하기 위한 중요한 기술로 취급되어 오고 있다. 삽입되는 워터마크는 압축, 필터링에서 cropping에 이르기까지 다양한 공격에 대하여 견고하여야 한다. 특히, JPEG은 인터넷 응용을 위한 뛰어난 정지 영상 압축 표준이기 때문에 JPEG 압축에 견관 디지털 워터마킹 기법이 특별히 요구된다. 지금까지 제안된 대부분의 디지털 워터마킹 기법은 JPEG의 품질수준(quality level)을 고려하지 않고 픽셀이나 계수를 변조하여 처리한다. 이것은 워터마크의 제거가 쉽게 이루어진다. 본 논문에서는 JPEG 압축시에 발생되는 영상의 손실을 계산하기 위해 JPEG 압축의 품질 계수를 워터마크 삽입 시의 파라메터로써 이용하여 JPEG 압축에 의한 차를 계산한다. 인간 시각의 성질 중에서 밝기 차의 식별력을 고려함과 동시에 영상의 에지 정보를 이용한 시각 성분을 계산한다. 이와 같이 JPEG 압축에 의한 영상의 손실과 인간의 시각 성질을 고려한 워터마크를 구성한 후에 영상에 삽입하는 새로운 디지털 워터마킹 기법을 제안한다.

The international standard for digital compression and coding of continuous-tone still image known as JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) standard is investigated for medical image archiving and communication. The JPEG standard has widely been accepted in the areas of electronic image communication, computer graphics, and multimedia applications, however, due to the lossy character of the JPEG compression its application to the field of medical imaging has been limited. In this paper, the JPEG standard is investigated for medical image compression with a series of head sections of magnetic resonance (MR) images (256 and 4096 graylevels, $256 {\times}256$size). Two types of Huffman codes are employed, i. e., one is optimized to the image statistics to be encoded and the other is a predetermined code, and their coding efficiencies are examined. From experiments, compression ratios of higher than 15 were obtained for the MR images without noticeable distortion. Error signal in the reconstructed images by the JPEG standard appears close to random noise. Compared to existing full-frame bit-allocation technique used for radiological image compression, the JPEG standard achieves higher compression with less Gibb's artifact. Feature of the progressive image build-up of the JPEG progressive coding may be useful in remote diognosis when data is transmitted through slow public communication channel.

This paper analyzed the characteristics of the Lossy JPEG of the meteorological satellite image, and analyzed the quality of the Lossy JPEG compression, which is proper for the LRIT(Low Rate Information Transmission) to be serviced to the SDUS(Small-scale Data Utilization Station) system of the COMS(Communication, Oceans, Meteorological Satellite). Since COMS is to start running after 2008, we collected the data of the MTSAT-1R(Multi-functional Transport Satellite -1R) for analysis, and after forming the original image to be used to LRIT by each channel and time zone of the satellite image data, we set the different quality with the Lossy JPEG compression, and compressed the original data. For the characteristic analysis of the Lossy JPEG, we measured PSNR(Peak Signal to Noise Rate), compression rate and the time spent in compression following each quality of Lossy JPEG compression. As a result of the analysis of the satellite image data of the MTSAT-1R, the ideal quality of the Lossy JPEG compression was found to be 90% in the VIS Channel, 85% in the IR1 Channel, 80% in the IR2 Channel, 90% in the IR3 Channel and 90% in the IR4 Channel.

본 논문에서는 JPEG 표준의 엔트로피 부호화 과정을 개선하여 압축률을 향상시키기 위한 방법을 제안한다. JPEG은 비교적 높은 화질 대비 압축률을 가지며, 특히 부호화와 복호화가 매우 효율적이어서 많은 응용에 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 JPEG의 이산 코사인 변환과 양자화, 재정렬 등의 과정을 거친 정보에 0, -1, 1등의 작은 값들이 연속적으로 나타난다는 관찰 결과에 착안하여 이들을 분리하고 JPEG의 방식 보다 효율적인 방법으로 엔트로피 부호화 함으로써 압축률을 향상시키는 방법을 제안한다. 이와 같은 방법을 통하여 다양한 화질의 영상에서 JPEG보다 높은 압축률을 얻을 수 있음을 실험적으로 확인하였다.

본 논문은 영상의 손실 압축에 널리 사용되는 JPEG 표준을 확장하여 압축률을 향상시키기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 연속적인 신호를 압축하는데 널리 사용되는 증분 압축 기법을 보다 효과적으로 손실 영상 압축 방법에 적용하기 위하여 행이나 열단위로 예측(prediction)과 이산 코사인 변환을 수행하고 양자화, 엔트로프 부호화 등의 과정을 거쳐 영상을 압축하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 특히 JPEG 표준과 행/열 단위 압축 방법의 장점을 동시에 갖게 하기 위해 JPEG 표준의 틀에서 선택적으로 블럭에 행/열 단위 압축을 수행함으로써 압축률을 향상시킨다. 실험 결과 본 논문에서 제안하는 압축 방법은 사용자가 압축 시 지정한 화질이 높을 경우 JPEG보다 높은 압축률을 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서 제안하는 압축 방법은 간단하게 기존의 JPEG 압축 방식에 추가되어 고화질의 영상을 효율적으로 압축하는데 사용될 수 있다.

The discrete cosine transform (DCT)-based progressive coding standard proposed by the International Standardization Orgnnization (ISO) Joint Photographic Experts Groups (JPEG) is investigated for medical image compression and the performance of the JPEG is compared to that of the full-frame bit-allocation (FFBA) technique. From the comparison, the JPEG standard appeals superior to the FFBA technique in the following aspects: 1) JPEG achieves higher compression than the FFBA technique with less mean square error. 2) Less Gibb's artifact is observed in the compressed images by the JPEG. 3) Computational time for the JPEG is about one-fourth or the FFBA technique. Other attractive points of the JPEG include: Implementation of the JPEG with VLSIs is commercially available in relative low price and the JPEG compression format can easily be interchangeable with other applications.
