본 논문에서는 3차원 의료 영상에 적합한 interframe 부호화 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 움직임 추정/보상과 변환 부호화를 사용하는 동영상 압축 방법에 기초를 두고 있다. 이 알고리즘에서는 움직임 추정을 위해 와핑 방법이 채택되었다. 그리고, 부호화 효율을 향상시키기 위해 적응적 모드 선택을 사용하여 웨이블릿 변환 영역에서 움직임 조상된 오차 영상과 원 영상을 혼합한다. 이렇게 혼합된 영상은 제로트리 부호화 기법에 의해 압축된다. 본 논문은 제안된 방법이 3차원 의료 영상의 부호화에 매우 유용함을 증명하였다. 모의실험결과는 제안된 방법이 슬라이스 간의 간격과 무관하게 항상 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있도록 하고, 그럼으로써 3차원 의료 영상 압축에 매우 바람직하다는 사실을 보여준다.

In the scalable extension of H.264/AVC, spatial scalability is provided residual information as encoding layered spatial resolution between layers. We use the inter-layer prediction to remove this redundancy. In the inter-layer prediction, as the prediction we can use the signal that is the upsampled signal of the lower resolution layer. In this case, coding efficiency can be different from optimal prediction by kinds of interpolation filter. This paper indicates technique to choose the interpolation filter and to enhance coding efficiency for finding more correct prediction in intra macroblock.

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.

Virtualized small cell network is a promising architecture which can realize efficient utilization of the network resource. However, conventional full duplex self-backhauls lead to residual self-interference, which limits the network performance. To handle this issue, this paper proposes a virtual resource allocation, in which the residual self-interference is fully exploited by employing a physical-layer network coding (PNC) aided self-backhaul scheme. We formulate the features of PNC as time slot and information rate constraints, and based on that, the virtual resource allocation is formulated as a mixed combinatorial optimization problem. To solve the problem efficiently, it is decomposed into two sub problems, and a two-phase iteration algorithm is developed accordingly. In the algorithm, the first sub problem is approximated and transferred into a convex problem by utilizing the upper bound of the PNC rate constraint. On the basis of that, the convexity of the second sub problem is also proved. Simulation results show the advantages of the proposed scheme over conventional solution in both the profits of self-backhauls and utility of the network resource.

Distributed compressed video sensing (DCVS) is a framework that integrates both compressed sensing and distributed video coding characteristics to achieve a low complexity video sampling. In DCVS schemes, motion estimation & motion compensation is employed at the decoder side, similarly to distributed video coding (DVC), for a low-complex encoder. However, since a simple BCS-SPL algorithm is applied to a residual arising from motion estimation and compensation in conventional MC-BCS-SPL (motion compensated block compressed sensing with smoothed projected Landweber) scheme, the reconstructed visual qualities are severly degraded in Wyner-Ziv (WZ) frames. Furthermore, the scheme takes lots of iteration to reconstruct WZ frames. In this paper, the conventional MC-BCS-SPL algorithm is improved to be operated in more effective way in WZ frames. That is, first, the proposed algorithm calculates a correlation coefficient between two reference key frames and, then, by selecting adaptively the reference frame, the residual reconstruction in pixel domain is performed to the conventional BCS-SPL scheme. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm achieves significantly better visual qualities than conventional MC-BCS-SPL algorithm, while resulting in the significant reduction of the decoding time.

A practical method of adaptive rate allocation to source and channel codings for an independent loss channel is proposed for Internet video. It is based on the observations that the values of residual loss probabilities at the optimal code rates for different packet loss probabilities are closely clustered to the average residual loss probability for a transmission frame size n in RS(n,k) code and for a total bit rate R. These observations aye then exploited to find the code rate for maximum PSNR. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a near-optimal bit-rate allocation in the joint source-channel coding of H.263 and RS(n,k) codings.

본 논문에서는 H.264/AVC에서 무손실 압축을 위하여 향상된 CABAC 엔트로피 부호화 방법을 제안한다. 0.264/AVC의 CABAC은 손실 압축을 지원하기 위해 개발되었기 때문에 무손실 압축에서 사용할 경우 압축 성능이 좋지 않다. 실제로 0.264/AVC Advanced 4:4:4 프로파일의 무손실 압축을 위한 엔트로피 부호화에도 기존의 방법을 수정 없이 그대로 사용하고 있기 때문에 엔트로피 측면에서 비효율성을 노출하고 있다. 따라서 0.264/AVC Advanced 4:4:4의 무손실 압축을 위해 잔여 신호의 통계적 특성을 고려한 이진화 방법을 제안하였다. 실험 결과, 제안된 방법은 기존의 무손실 부호화와 비교하여 약 3.4%의 비트율을 절약할 수 있었다.

In this paper, a novel gray-scale lossless image coder combining context-based minimum mean squared error (MMSE) prediction and entropy coding is proposed. To obtain context of prediction, this paper first defines directional difference according to sharpness of edge and gradients of localities of image data. Classification of 4 directional differences forms“geometry context”model which characterizes two-dimensional general image behaviors such as directional edge region, smooth region or texture. Based on this context model, adaptive DPCM prediction coefficients are calculated in MMSE sense and the prediction is performed. The MMSE method on context-by-context basis is more in accord with minimum entropy condition, which is one of the major objectives of the predictive coding. In entropy coding stage, context modeling method also gives useful performance. To reduce the statistical redundancy of the residual image, many contexts are preset to take full advantage of conditional probability in entropy coding and merged into small number of context in efficient way for complexity reduction. The proposed lossless coding scheme slightly outperforms the CALIC, which is the state-of-the-art, in compression ratio.

In this paper, we will present a lossy data compression method for coding multispectral images. The proposed method uses both spatial and spectra] correlation inherent in multispectral images. First, band 2 and band 6 are vector quantized. Secondly, band 4 is estimated with the quantized band 2 using the predictive coding. Errors of band 4 are encoded at a second stage based on the magnitude of the errors. Thirdly, remaining bands are calculated with the quantized band 2 and band 4. Errors of residual bands are wavelet transformed and then we apply the SPIHT coding on the transformed coefficients. We classify classes without extra information transmitting and then use linear predictor. And errors can be encoded by SPIHT coding at any target rate we are want. It is shown that this method has better performance than FPVQ. Average PSNR rises 0.645 dB at the same bit rate.

멀티미디어 통신에서 융통성 있는 비주얼 콘텐츠를 제공하기 위해 ISO/IEC MPEG & ITU-T VCEG의 JVT는 H.264/AVC 표준에 기반을 둔 확장 형식으로 SVC를 표준화하였다. JVT는 H.264/AVC SVC의 압축 효율을 높이기 위해 기존 H.264/AVC에서 제공하는 인터 예측(inter prediction) 과 인트라 예측(intra prediction) 뿐만 아니라 계층 간의 중복요소을 제거하는 계층 간 예측을 추가로 수행한다. 계층 간 예측 방법은 기본계층에서 코딩된 데이타를 재사용하여 향상계층의 비트율-왜곡(rate-distortion) 효율을 향상시킨다. 그러나 계층 간 예측을 추가로 수행함으로써 계산 복잡도가 높아지는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 계산 복잡도를 감소시키기 위해 계층 간 예측 중 기본계층의 잔여 신호값을 이용하는 예측 과정에서 효율적인 잔여신호 업 샘플링의 기법을 제안한다. 실험 결과 코딩 효율을 유지하면서 예측과정의 계산복잡도를 약 30% 줄일 수 있었다.
