Compression techniques for digital video are a vital component of all multimedia systems. This book introduces the fundamentals of compression algorithms, including entropy and source encoding, run-length encoding, vector quantization, Huffman codes and DCT. It proceeds with state-of-the-art still image compression with an emphasis on the algorithms used in multimedia systems today, such as JPEG and fractal image compression. A real challenge in terms of runtime performance is digital video, and video compression algorithms including MPEG, Wavelets and H.261 are the topic of an in-depth disc

Created by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG), the JPEG standard is the first color still image data compression international standard. Crucial to the work of companies and universities throughout the world, it consists of 20 explicitly defined processes to encode or decode continuous tone still images. This new guide to JPEG and its technologies offers detailed information on the new JPEG signaling conventions and the structure of JPEG compressed data. At the same time, it provides a general review of image-coding techniques, with an emphasis on JPEG-related topics. 200 illustration

The JPEG 2000 Suite provides a comprehensive overview of the baseline JPEG 2000 standard and its extensions. The first part of the book sets out the core coding system, additions to the standard and reference software. The second part discusses the successful deployment of JPEG 2000 in application domains such as video surveillance, digital cinema, digital television, medical imaging, defence imaging, security, geographic imaging and remote sensing, digital culture imaging and 3D graphics. The book also presents implementation strategies accompanied by existing software and hardware solutions.
