Book Image Segmentation and Compression Using Hidden Markov Models

Download or read book Image Segmentation and Compression Using Hidden Markov Models written by Jia Li and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the current age of information technology, the issues of distributing and utilizing images efficiently and effectively are of substantial concern. Solutions to many of the problems arising from these issues are provided by techniques of image processing, among which segmentation and compression are topics of this book. Image segmentation is a process for dividing an image into its constituent parts. For block-based segmentation using statistical classification, an image is divided into blocks and a feature vector is formed for each block by grouping statistics of its pixel intensities. Conventional block-based segmentation algorithms classify each block separately, assuming independence of feature vectors. Image Segmentation and Compression Using Hidden Markov Models presents a new algorithm that models the statistical dependence among image blocks by two dimensional hidden Markov models (HMMs). Formulas for estimating the model according to the maximum likelihood criterion are derived from the EM algorithm. To segment an image, optimal classes are searched jointly for all the blocks by the maximum a posteriori (MAP) rule. The 2-D HMM is extended to multiresolution so that more context information is exploited in classification and fast progressive segmentation schemes can be formed naturally. The second issue addressed in the book is the design of joint compression and classification systems using the 2-D HMM and vector quantization. A classifier designed with the side goal of good compression often outperforms one aimed solely at classification because overfitting to training data is suppressed by vector quantization. Image Segmentation and Compression Using Hidden Markov Models is an essential reference source for researchers and engineers working in statistical signal processing or image processing, especially those who are interested in hidden Markov models. It is also of value to those working on statistical modeling.

Download or read book Segmentation based Image Compression written by Oh-Jin Kwon and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "A segmentation-based image coding technique is described here. Both uniform and textured region extraction algorithms are used for segmentation. Textured regions are reconstructed using 2-D noncausal Gaussian-Markov random field models. Uniform regions are reconstructed using polynomial expansions. An arithmetic coder is used for coding the boundaries of regions. Reasonable quality images are obtained at a compression factor of 82:1."

Book Image Segmentation Using Human Visual System Properties with Applications in Image Compression

Download or read book Image Segmentation Using Human Visual System Properties with Applications in Image Compression written by Heidi A. Peterson and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "In order to represent a digital image, a very large number of bits is required. For example, a 512 x 512 pixel, 256 gray level image requires over two million bits. This large number of bits is a substantial drawback when it is neceaary to store or transmit a digital image. Image compression, often referred to as image coding, attempts to reduce the number of bits used to represent an image, while keeping the degradation in the decoded image to a minimum. One approach to image compression is segmentation-based image compression. The image to be compressed is segmented, i.e., the pixels in the image are divided into mutually exclusive spatial regions based on some criteria.

Download or read book Lossy Image Compression written by K K Shukla and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-08-28 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Image compression is concerned with minimization of the number of information carrying units used to represent an image. Lossy compression techniques incur some loss of information which is usually imperceptible. In return for accepting this distortion, we obtain much higher compression ratios than is possible with lossless compression. Salient features of this book include: four new image compression algorithms and implementation of these algorithms; detailed discussion of fuzzy geometry measures and their application in image compression algorithms; new domain decomposition based algorithms using image quality measures and study of various quality measures for gray scale image compression; compression algorithms for different parallel architectures and evaluation of time complexity for encoding on all architectures; parallel implementation of image compression algorithms on a cluster in Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) environment.

Book Document and Image Compression

Download or read book Document and Image Compression written by Mauro Barni and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although it's true that image compression research is a mature field, continued improvements in computing power and image representation tools keep the field spry. Faster processors enable previously intractable compression algorithms and schemes, and certainly the demand for highly portable high-quality images will not abate. Document and Image Compression highlights the current state of the field along with the most probable and promising future research directions for image coding. Organized into three broad sections, the book examines the currently available techniques, future directions, and techniques for specific classes of images. It begins with an introduction to multiresolution image representation, advanced coding and modeling techniques, and the basics of perceptual image coding. This leads to discussions of the JPEG 2000 and JPEG-LS standards, lossless coding, and fractal image compression. New directions are highlighted that involve image coding and representation paradigms beyond the wavelet-based framework, the use of redundant dictionaries, the distributed source coding paradigm, and novel data-hiding techniques. The book concludes with techniques developed for classes of images where the general-purpose algorithms fail, such as for binary images and shapes, compound documents, remote sensing images, medical images, and VLSI layout image data. Contributed by international experts, Document and Image Compression gathers the latest and most important developments in image coding into a single, convenient, and authoritative source.

Book Compound Image Segmentation and Compression for Secure Transmission

Download or read book Compound Image Segmentation and Compression for Secure Transmission written by D. Maheswari Maheshlenin and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increase in the use of images in the continuous expansion of multimedia applications has increased the demand for efficient techniques that can store and transmit visual information. This demand has made image compression a vital factor. This work proposes compression techniques for compound images. For this purpose, the primary goal was set as "to develop compression schemes that can compress color compound images quickly, which can reduce the compression rate, while maintaining a good level of visual quality in a secure fashion." Here two types of segmentation techniques (i) layer-based segmentation and (ii) block-based segmentation are analyzed and two hybrid models are proposed. The first hybrid model combines histogram-threshold block-based technique with wavelets and the second model combines layer and block-based techniques for efficient compression. Security to image content is provided in three ways, namely, Block Transformation Coding (BTC), XML transformation and conversion for text block and Encryption of image blocks. Experiments are conducted with the traditional compressors which prove that the proposed models give better results.
