Embedded Block Coding with Optimal Truncation (EBCOT) is the fundamental and computationally very demanding part of the compression process of JPEG2000 image compression standard. ...
Discrete wavelet transformations (DWT) followed by embedded zerotree encoding is a very efficient technique for image compression [2, 5, 4]. However, the algorithms proposed in l...
In this paper, we present a new coding scheme for depth maps using a hierarchical decomposition. After we decompose a depth map into three disjoint images and a layer descriptor a...
The lossless entropy coding used in many image coding schemes often is overlooked as most research is based around the lossy stages of image compression. This paper examines the r...
A novel digital image watermarking method based on wavelet domain fractal coding is presented in this paper. Employing the invariant parameters of the wavelet domain fractal trans...
