Book Vector Quantization and Signal Compression

Download or read book Vector Quantization and Signal Compression written by Allen Gersho and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1991-11-30 with total page 762 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herb Caen, a popular columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle, recently quoted a Voice of America press release as saying that it was reorganizing in order to "eliminate duplication and redundancy. " This quote both states a goal of data compression and illustrates its common need: the removal of duplication (or redundancy) can provide a more efficient representation of data and the quoted phrase is itself a candidate for such surgery. Not only can the number of words in the quote be reduced without losing informa tion, but the statement would actually be enhanced by such compression since it will no longer exemplify the wrong that the policy is supposed to correct. Here compression can streamline the phrase and minimize the em barassment while improving the English style. Compression in general is intended to provide efficient representations of data while preserving the essential information contained in the data. This book is devoted to the theory and practice of signal compression, i. e. , data compression applied to signals such as speech, audio, images, and video signals (excluding other data types such as financial data or general purpose computer data). The emphasis is on the conversion of analog waveforms into efficient digital representations and on the compression of digital information into the fewest possible bits. Both operations should yield the highest possible reconstruction fidelity subject to constraints on the bit rate and implementation complexity.

Book Development of Image Compression Algorithms

Download or read book Development of Image Compression Algorithms written by Vipula Singh and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applications, which need to store large database and/or transmit digital images requiring high bit-rates over channels with limited bandwidth, have demanded improved image compression techniques.. Encoding an image into fewer bits is useful in reducing the storage requirements in image archival systems, or in decreasing the bandwidth for image transmission. In standard image compression methods (e.g. JPEG), as the bits per pixel reduces, the picture quality deteriorates because of the use of bigger quantization step size. In this work, image compression techniques are designed keeping in mind the human visual system. Practical and effective image compression system based on Neuro-Wavelet models have been proposed which combines the advantages of neural network and wavelet transform with vector quantization. Fuzzy c-means and Fuzzy vector quantization algorithms have also been used to make use of uncertainty for the benefit of the clustering process. We have compared the performances of different clustering algorithms applied to the proposed encoder. Experimental results on real images of varying complexity have established the robustness and effectiveness of the method

Download or read book Unsupervised Learning Algorithms written by M. Emre Celebi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes the state-of-the-art in unsupervised learning. The contributors discuss how with the proliferation of massive amounts of unlabeled data, unsupervised learning algorithms, which can automatically discover interesting and useful patterns in such data, have gained popularity among researchers and practitioners. The authors outline how these algorithms have found numerous applications including pattern recognition, market basket analysis, web mining, social network analysis, information retrieval, recommender systems, market research, intrusion detection, and fraud detection. They present how the difficulty of developing theoretically sound approaches that are amenable to objective evaluation have resulted in the proposal of numerous unsupervised learning algorithms over the past half-century. The intended audience includes researchers and practitioners who are increasingly using unsupervised learning algorithms to analyze their data. Topics of interest include anomaly detection, clustering, feature extraction, and applications of unsupervised learning. Each chapter is contributed by a leading expert in the field.

Book Soft Computing for Image Processing

Download or read book Soft Computing for Image Processing written by Sankar K. Pal and published by Physica. This book was released on 2013-03-19 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any task that involves decision-making can benefit from soft computing techniques which allow premature decisions to be deferred. The processing and analysis of images is no exception to this rule. In the classical image analysis paradigm, the first step is nearly always some sort of segmentation process in which the image is divided into (hopefully, meaningful) parts. It was pointed out nearly 30 years ago by Prewitt (1] that the decisions involved in image segmentation could be postponed by regarding the image parts as fuzzy, rather than crisp, subsets of the image. It was also realized very early that many basic properties of and operations on image subsets could be extended to fuzzy subsets; for example, the classic paper on fuzzy sets by Zadeh [2] discussed the "set algebra" of fuzzy sets (using sup for union and inf for intersection), and extended the defmition of convexity to fuzzy sets. These and similar ideas allowed many of the methods of image analysis to be generalized to fuzzy image parts. For are cent review on geometric description of fuzzy sets see, e. g. , [3]. Fuzzy methods are also valuable in image processing and coding, where learning processes can be important in choosing the parameters of filters, quantizers, etc.

Book On Effective Compression Using Vector Quantization and Pyramid Processing

Download or read book On Effective Compression Using Vector Quantization and Pyramid Processing written by Zhongxiu Wen and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vector quantization (VQ) is an effective spatial domain image compression technique which maps discrete k-dimensional vectors into a digital sequence suitable for communication or storage. This research investigates methods for improving the performance of vector quantization based on pyramid tools. An iterative optimization clustering VQ procedure based upon an initial codebook randomly sampled from the training set is presented. The main idea of the proposed algorithm is that a set of new cluster means is generated by using an iterative clustering algorithm, with the previous codewords as seeds. The training set is drawn from the present training images. The resulting cluster means are then used in a new codebook which is continually refined so that each iteration reduces the distortion involved in coding a given training set. The goal of such system is to reduce the bit rate so as to minimize communication channel capacity or digital storage memory requirement. This VQ can provide a reduction from 8 bits per pixel (bpp) to 2 bpp or 0.5 bpp with negligible degradation image quality. Vector quantization usually requires extensive computations. In this thesis both the pyramid processing and the fast algorithms are examined for vector quantization. After a brief introduction of the topic in Chapter 1, the history and fundamentals of vector quantization are presented in Chapter 2. Chapter 3 describes the concepts and techniques of pyramid image processing. A new VQ algorithm which is employed in the thesis is examined in Chapter 4. In Chapter 5 the importance of post-processing is emphasized with illustrative results. Even with post-processing the vector quantization method considered indeed provides a significantly better image compression over existing image compression technique.
