High Efficiency Video Coding(HEVC) is an ongoing video coding standard. Compared to H.264, it adopts quad-tree structure to decide the encoding efficiency by computing the rate-distortion(R-D) cost function recursively. The transform unit (TU) is the basic unit used for the transform and quantization processes in HEVC and the ranges size from 4×4 to 32×32. In addition, a large size TU is always chosen,...
Satellite images have been more and more popularly used in our daily life. For satellite image compression, the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) had proposed an image compression standard (CCSDS-ICS) which is so far the most widely implemented in hardware. CCSDS-ICS provides good compression performance under the measure of PSNR. However, PSNR is a concept of average differences...
JPEG standard is commonly used for the still image compression. However, the DCT-based coding of JPEG is one of the lossy compression tools and introduces most artifacts in the decompressed image such as blocking and ringing artifacts. In this paper, our proposed method focuses on how to efficiently detect the blocks which cause ringing artifacts. Moreover, these ringing blocks will be further filtered...
In the modern compression system, besides high compression qualities and low bit rates, others extra functional capabilities become more and more important. For the use of satellite images, the data size is always very large and the users might be just interested in some regions of a satellite image. Thus it is an ideal way to keep the better quality in the regions of interest than in others in a...
Digital cameras that gradually replace conventional cameras store photographs in digital format. As a result, captured images can be more easily processed. Consequently the quality of image is more important. In this paper, we present an overview of image quality attributes of different contrast enhancement in gray level images. Moreover, we present results of analysis for some contrast enhancement...
Studies of contrast sensitivity of the human eyes show that logarithmic curves obey the Weber-Fechner law of just noticeable difference response in human perception. In this paper, we propose a local contrast enhancement algorithm with logarithm-based curves for both high dynamic and low dynamic images and this algorithm can adaptively change the curvature with local information. We also define two...
