In this paper, we propose a new edge based finite state vector quantization method having better performance than conventional side-match finite state vector quantization. In our proposed scheme, each dCT transformed block is classified to 17 classes according to edge types. Each class has a different codebook based on its characteristis. Encoder classified each block to motion block or stationary block and constructed a merging map by using edge and motion information, and sent to decoder. We controled amoutn of bing bits transmitted with selecting modes accoridng to bandwidth of transmitting channel. Compared with conventional algorithms, H.263 and H.261 at low bit rate, our proposed algorithm shows better picture quality and good performance.

This paper considers a communication system consisting of a vector quantizer with selected code vectors with mapped into points in the modulated signal space. The modulated signal is transmitted over a Rayleigh flat fading channel. We optimize the modulated signal constellation to minimize the overall distortion of the system with the fixed vector quantization codebook. The optimization is obtained by partitioning the modulated signal space. Simulation results show that the signal constellation based on the proposed optimization scheme outperforms the conventional methods.

In this paper, an effiicent quatization method of line spectrum pairs(LSP) with cascaded structure of vector quantizer and scalar quantizer is proposed. First, input LSP parameters is vector-quantized using a codebook with a moderate number of entries. In the second stage of quantization, the components of residual vector are individution improve the quantizer by the scalar quantizer. The utilization of ordering property and the inclusion of interframe prediction improve the quantizer performance and remove the stability check routine. The new vector-scalar cascaded quantizer using 27 bits/frame shows a transparent quality that an average specytural distortion is 1 dB and the frame proportion with above 2 dB spectral distion is less than 2%.

Several image coding algorithms have been developed for the telecommunication and multimedia systems with high image quality and high compression ratio. In order to achieve low entropy and distortion, the system should pay great cost of computation time and memory. In this paper, the uniform cubic lattice is chosen for Lattice Vector Quantization (LVQ) because of its generic simplicity. As a transform coding, the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is applied to the images because of its multiresolution property. The proposed algorithm is basically composed of the biorthogonal DWT and the uniform cubic LVQ. The multiresolution property of the DWT is actively used to optimize the entropy and the distortion on the basis of the distortion-rate function. The vector codebooks are also designed to be optimal at each subimage which is analyzed by the biorthogonal DWT. For compression efficiency, the vector codebook has different dimension depending on the variance of subimage. The simulation results show that the performance of the proposed coding mdthod is superior to the others in terms of the computation complexity and the PSNR in the range of entropy below 0.25 bpp.

In designing the quantizer of a coding scheme using a training sequence (TS), the training algorithm tries to find a quantizer that minimizes the distortion measured in the TS. In order to evaluate the trained quantizer or compare the coding scheme, we can observe the minimized distortion. However, the minimized distortion is a biased estimate of the minimal distortion for the input distribution. Hence, we could often overestimate a quantizer or make a wrong comparison even if we use a validating sequence. In this paper, by compensating the minimized distortion for the TS, a new estimate is proposed. Compensating term is a function of the training ratio, the TS size to the codebook size. Several numerical results are also introduced for the proposed estimate.

This paper considers a limited feedback system for two-way wireless relaying channels with physical network coding (PNC). For full feedback systems, the optimal structure with the PNC has already been studied where a modulo operation is employed. In this case, phase and power of two end node channels are adjusted to maximize the minimum distance. Based on this result, we design new quantization methods for the phase and the power in the limited feedback system. By investigating the minimum distance of the received constellation, we present a code-book design to maximize the worst minimum distance. Especially, for quantization of the power for 16-QAM, a new power quantization scheme is proposed to maximize the performance. Also, utilizing the characteristics of the minimum distance observed in our codebook design, we present a power allocation method which does not require any feedback information. Simulation results confirm that our proposed scheme outperforms conventional systems with reduced complexity.

In this paper, the biomedical signal compression method with multi-stage vector quantization is proposed. It utilizes characteristic of wavelet coefficients in which the energy is concentrated on approximation coefficients. The transmitted codebook index consists code vectors obtained by wavelet coefficients of ECG and Error signals from the 1024 block length, respectively. The proposed compression method showed 2.1298% in average PRD and 1.8 kbits/sec in CDR.

In vector quantization (VQ), mean squared difference (MSD) is a widely used distance measure between vectors. But the distance between the means of each vector elements appears as a dominant quantity in MSD. In the case of image vectors, the coincidence of edge patterns is also important when the human visual system (HVS) is considered. Therefore, we propose a new distance measure that uses the variance of differences to encode vectors and to design codebooks. It can choose more proper codewords to reduce edge degradations and make a useful codebook, which has lots of various edge codewords in place of redundant shades.

This paper describes development of a real-time voice recognition dialing system which can recognize around one hundred word vocabularies in speaker independent mode. The voice recognition algorithm is implemented on a DSP board with a telephone interface plugged in an IBM PC AT/486. In the DSP board, procedures for feature extraction, vector quantization(VQ), and end-point detection are performed simultaneously in every 10msec frame interval to satisfy real-time constraints after the word starting point detection. In addition, we optimize the VQ codebook size and the end-point detection procedure to reduce recognition time and memory requirement. The demonstration system is being displayed in MOBILAB of Korea Mobile Telecom at the Taejon EXPO '93.
