In this paper, we propose the method of embedding the encrypted digital watermark in quantization coefficient when we encode the image data in the process of JPEC. The proposed method is as following. After a DCT coefficient of each block is quantized, we arrange the quantization coefficient as on dimension with a zigzag scan and replace each block. By applying even-odd feature of frequency of the encrypted watermark to a quantization coefficient of some fixed domain of replaced each block and embedding it, we obtain the compressed image data by encoding after placing it in the order prior to replacement. The advantages of the proposed method here are as follows: We can embed many information keeping a secret as much as possible by using the algorithm of block replacement. We can control the amount of embedding of each use, as we embed the encrypted information by selecting some fixed domain of a quantization coefficient, we can fix the embedding data regardless of the image and the value of quantization. We verified the results by experiments and analyzed the efficiency of them in comparison with the former study.

A wavelet transform coding method that fulfills the requirements of HD-VCR(high definition video casstte recorder) for studio applications in proposed. A constant bit rate is achieved by a forward rate control technique whcih determins the quantizer stepsize based on the coding results fo the previous frame. We also propose a two-level coder that consists of both the IDC(independently decodable code) and the DDC(dependently decodable code). To minimize error propagation, the transformed coefficients are restructured into transform blocks which are represented by a tree structure. The result shows thta the proposed coding scheme produces better picture quality with block effects than that of DCT(discrete cosine transform) based coding schemes at the same compression ratio. The proposed method meets most of the requirements of HD-VCR.

OWT is a tool for block transform coding with wavelet basis functions that overlap adjacent blocks. The OWT can reduce the block effect. In this paper performances of OWT are evaluated for AR model. Some simulation results show that performances are nearly same to DCT, but block effect is reduced to very low level.

In this paper, we propose efficient content-based image retrieval methods using the automatic extraction of the low-level visual features as image content. Two new feature extraction methods are presented. The first one os an advanced color feature extraction derived from the modification of Stricker's method. The second one is a texture feature extraction using some DCT coefficients which represent some dominant directions and gray level variations of the image. In the experiment with an image database of 200 natural images, the proposed methods show higher performance than other methods. They can be combined into an efficient hierarchical retrieval method.

This paper implements H.263 codec using SIMD(single instruction multiple data) method in real time based on PC. This system uses INS algorithm previously proposed by the authors as motion estimation module. SIMD method is used in DCT, IDCT, quantization, motion estimation, and display module. The developed algorithms are implemented using TMN5. Using the above algorithm, H.263 Codec can communicate more than 15 frames/sec in CIF resolution on a Pentium-IV 1.7GHz computer.

본 논문에서는 현재 MPEG, JPEG 압축 알고리즘에서 쓰이는 DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform)기반의 손실 영상 압축에 사용되는 양자화(Quantization) 처리에 필요한 나눗셈 연산기를 제안한다. 영상 데이터 처리를 위한 양자화기(Quantizer)는 DCT로부터 매 사이클마다 영상 데이터를 입력 받아 양자화 처리를 해야하며 보다 나은 영상 데이터를 위해 최종 나눗셈 결과 즉, 몫을 소수 첫째자리에서 반올림(Rounding)해야 한다. 이를 위해 반올림 동작이 추가된 Pipelined Nonrestoring Array Divider를 설계하였다. 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위해 DCT로부터 나온 영상 데이터를 제안된 구조의 양자화기로 양자화하여 일반 양자화기에서 나온 압축된 데이터와 비교해 보았다. 또한 합성기(Synthesis)를 통하여 실제 하드웨어 크기를 분석하였다.

This paper describes a method of performance enhancement using Flatness Mesure(FM) for the Gaussian Mixture Model(GMM) face recognition systems. Using this measure we discard the frames having low information before training and test. As the result, the performance increases about 9％ in the lower mixtures and calculation burden is decreased. As well, the recognition error rate is decreased under the illumination change surroundings. We use the 2D DCT coefficients lot face feature vectors and experiments are carried out on the Olivetti Research Laboratory (ORL) face database.

With increasing the volume of digital multimedia market, the security and multimedia content protection issues are arising. Interest in H.264/AVC is emerging and special features in H.264/AVC element stream must be considered. We developed a new algorithm which scrambles and descrambles H.264/AVC element stream in compressed domain using manipulating CABAC initialization table and DCT coefficients. Extensive experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm is effective and promising.
