To alleviate the size and bandwidth requirement in JPEG2000 system, a new Embedded Compression(EC) algorithm with minor image quality drop is proposed. For both random accessibility and low latency, very simple and efficient hadamard transform based compression algorithm is devised. We reduced LL intermediate memory and code-block memory to about half size and achieved significant memory bandwidth reductions(about 52~73%) through proposed multi-mode algorithms, without requiring any modification in JPEG2000 standard algorithm.

An efficient block based two-layer JPEG encoding algorithm is proposed to compress high dynamic range (HDR) images in this work. The proposed algorithm separates an input HDR image into a tone-mapped low dynamic range (LDR) image and a ratio image, which represents the quotients of the original HDR pixels divided by the tone-mapped LDR pixels. Then, the tone-mapped LDR image is compressed using the standard JPEG scheme to preserve backward compatibility and the ratio image is encoded to minimize a cost function that models the perception of each block with different quantization parameters in the human visual system (HVS). Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm provides better performance than the conventional method, which encodes the ratio image without any prior information of blocks.

Currently, the preferred processing of a user-centered ROI(Region-of-Interest) or a specific region of image than the transmission and decompression of a full image is needed in different applications. This preferred processing has been actively studied about from the ROI coding methods in JPEG2000 standards to the new methods complementing them. But, there does not exist an ROI coding method suitable for all applications. Therefore, this study shows a criterion of selection according to the application requirements for applying an adequate ROI coding method in JPEG2000 applications, and shows the experimental results deciding efficient parameters in the selected methods.

Recently, the standardization of backward compatible JPEG image coding for high dynamic range (HDR) image has been undertaken to establish an international standard called "JPEG XT." The JPEG XT consists of two layers: the base layer and the residual layer. The base layer contains tone mapped low dynamic range (LDR) image data and the residual layer contains the error signal used to reconstruct the HDR image. This paper gives the result of a study to evaluate the overall performance of tone mapping operators (TMOs) for this standard. The evaluation is performed using five HDR image datasets and six TMOs for profiles A, B, and C of the proposed JPEG XT standard. The Tone Mapped image Quality Index (TMQI) and no reference image quality assessment (NR IQA) are used for measuring the LDR image quality. The peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) is used to evaluate the overall compression performance of JPEG XT profiles A, B, and C. In TMQI and NR IQA measurements, TMOs using display adaptive tone mapping and adaptive logarithmic mapping each gave good results. A TMO using adaptive logarithmic mapping gave good PSNRs.

In this paper, a co-design method for JPEG2000 video compression system using DSP and FPGA is presented. By profiling the complexity of JPEG2000 algorithm, it is noticed that a MQ-coder is the most complex part. Thus, we implement the MQ-coder on FPGA for the parallel processing using VHDL to reduce the complexity. In order to verify the performance of the MQ-coder, JBIG2 standard test vector and images are used. The experimental results show that the proposed MQ-coder enhances the processing time approximately 3 times compared with the previous software MQ-coder.

This raper analyzes the effect of visually lossless image compression for efficient distribution of digital cinema. Currently, distribution of digital cinema is carried out based on JPEG 2000 standard that has been selected by DCI. We first summarize characteristics of JPEG 2000, and then define the concept of visually lossless coding that plays an important role in digital cinema distribution. We provide a test for JPEG 2000 compression performance according to DCI specification for visually lossless. Based on the experiment, the result satisfies high quality for cinema distribution.

Recently, there is increasing concern about smart phone due to the release of Iphone and Android phone. Like the normal desktop application, using multimedia contents will have important role for smart phone application. The multimedia contents mentioned here mean Image and Video. The famous codecs for Image and video are Jpeg Mpeg and h.264, which is popular recently as a vedeo codec because of its high compression ratio compared with the other video codecs. In this paper, we will use Jpeg and H.264 encoded raw sequences. This paper will suggest how to decode and display effectively Jpeg and H.264 raw sequences arrived from socket stream. And we will show you the simulation result.

본 논문에서는 JPEG2000 코딩에서의 핵심 처리기술 중의 하나인 웨이블릿(wavelet) 변환 처리 후, 각 계수간의 시각특성을 이용한 JPEG2000에서의 효율적인 워터마킹 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 웨이블릿 변환 영역에서 계수간의 시각적인 특성을 이용하여 영상의 손실을 최소화하고, 저주파성분과 고주파성분에 고르게 워터마크를 삽입함으로써 보다 강인성을 높였다. 그리고 추출시에 원영상 없이도 워터마크를 추출할 수 있는 블라인더(Blind) 워터마킹 기법이다.
