    • A method for re-indexing a palette-indexed image is disclosed. The method uses an array of symbol cross-counts that indicate the degree of occurrence, within the image, of symbols in one or more predefined contextual relationships, such as symbol adjacency. One objective of the method is to manipulate the palette index such that adjacent symbols in the image are assigned indices that are as close as possible in symbol space, thus enhancing the subsequent compressability of the image with many lossless compressors. As global minimization is generally computationally impracticable, the disclosed embodiments present a greedy suboptimal solution to this problem. The basic method uses a one-dimensional reassignment pool and a seed symbol. A single symbol is selected for positioning either to the immediate right or left of the seed in the pool, according to a potential function that uses the cross-count array. This process is then iterated, considering the first and second pool symbols during the next selection, etc., placing symbols in the pool so as to minimize the average interpixel differences in the re-indexed image.
    • 公开了一种用于重新索引调色板索引图像的方法。 该方法使用符号交叉计数的数组,其指示图像内在一个或多个预定义的上下文关系(诸如符号邻接)中的符号的出现程度。 该方法的一个目标是操纵调色板索引,使得图像中的相邻符号被分配在符号空间中尽可能接近的索引,从而增强了具有许多无损压缩器的图像的随后的可压缩性。 由于全局最小化通常在计算上是不切实际的,所公开的实施例呈现出对该问题的贪婪次优解。基本方法使用一维再分配池和种子符号。 根据使用交叉计数数组的潜在功能,选择单个符号来定位到池中种子的右侧或左侧。 然后重复该过程,考虑在下次选择期间的第一和第二池符号等,将符号放置在池中,以便最小化重新索引图像中的平均像素间差异。

    • An adaptive image coding method and system are disclosed. The system accepts an input image, divides it into image segments, and assigns each segment to a wavelet transform filter from a bank of such filters for transformation. The bank preferably comprises filters adapted for different types of image content, e.g., sharp edges, slowly-varying contours, etc. Filters are preferably assigned so as to produce minimal distortion for their assigned image segments at a given target bit rate, each filter produces transform coefficients for its segment using scale and subband settings common to the entire image. The valid coefficients for each segment are then combined in a composite wavelet coefficient image, which resembles a single wavelet transform of an entire image—although different filters are used to create different portions of the coefficient image. The composite image allows joint, rate-distortion optimized coding for a segmented image. Joint coding allocates bits between the transforms of the image segments optimally, and produces an easily scaleable bitstream.

    • Methods and apparatus for encryption and decryption of digital images are disclosed. A preferred embodiment operates on an image frame after that frame has undergone a space-frequency transform operation, such as a block DCT or wavelet transform, and before the frame is passed to a bitstream coder for entropy coding. The transform coefficient map is subjected to one or more encryption operations that render a subsequently decoded (but not decrypted) image incomprehensible. These operations are designed to operate with low computational overhead and with only minor effects on compressed bit rate. They also allow secure transcoding at intermediate routers of the transmission channels without the cryptographic key. In one operation, the sign bits of transform coefficients are scrambled. In another operation, two dimensional blocks of coefficients from a common subband are shuffled and/or rotated to pseudorandom locations and orientations. In yet another operation, coefficients occupying a common “subband”, but taken from different DCT blocks, are shuffled. Still another operation shuffles motion vectors and/or scrambles sign bits for motion vector coefficients. These operations perturb the data as it will appear visually, without greatly perturbing the entropy of the data as presented to an entropy coder.

    • A rate-distortion optimized embedding (RDE) coder optimizes rate-distortion performance by coding information bits in the order of their R-D slope. RDE allocates the available coding bits first to the information bit with the steepest R-D slope, which indicates the largest distortion decrease per coding bit. The resultant RDE bitstream can be truncated at any point and still maintain an optimal R-D performance. To avoid the overhead of coding order transmission, an expected R-D slope is calculated by both the encoder and the decoder from previous RDE coded bits. A probability estimation table from a QM arithmetic coder allows the R-D slope to be derived using a lookup table operation. The rate-distortion optimised embedding (RDE) coder significantly improves the coding efficiency over a wide range of bit rates.
    • 速率失真优化嵌入(RDE)编码器以其R-D斜率的顺序对信息位进行编码来优化速率失真性能。 RDE首先将可用的编码位分配给具有最陡的R-D斜率的信息位,这表示每编码位最大的失真减小。 所得到的RDE比特流可以在任何点被截断,并且仍然保持最佳的R-D性能。 为了避免编码顺序传输的开销,由编码器和解码器由先前的RDE编码位计算预期的R-D斜率。 来自QM算术编码器的概率估计表允许使用查找表操作导出R-D斜率。 速率失真优化嵌入(RDE)编码器在宽范围的比特率下显着提高了编码效率。

    • An arbitrary shape wavelet transform with phase alignment (ASWP) is used to transform an arbitrary shaped object in an image. The phase of an odd tap wavelet filter is aligned so that a low pass filter is always centered at an even index, and a high pass filter is always centered at an odd index. The phase of an even tap wavelet filter is aligned so that the low pass filter and the high pass filter are both centered at index 2i+0.5, i.e., a half index past the even index. The objects for odd tap wavelet filters are each separately symmetrically extended by mirroring the objects from the opposite ends but not mirroring the end pixels. The objects for the even tap filter is symmetrically extended by mirroring the pixels from the opposite ends of the objects including mirroring the end pixels. The phase adjusted-symmetrically extended objects are then transformed.
    • 使用具有相位对准(ASWP)的任意形状小波变换来变换图像中的任意成形对象。 对齐抽头小波滤波器的相位被对准,使得低通滤波器总是以均匀的索引为中心,并且高通滤波器总是以奇数索引为中心。 对均匀抽头小波滤波器的相位进行比对,使得低通滤波器和高通滤波器都以索引2i + 0.5为中心,即超过偶数指数的一半索引。 奇数抽头小波滤波器的对象通过从相对端镜像对象而不是镜像终端像素而分别对称地扩展。 偶数抽头滤波器的对象通过镜像来自对象的相对端的像素对称地扩展,包括镜像终端像素。 然后相位调整对称扩展的对象被变换。
