Abstract

See full text

A wavelet pyramid-based still-image and video compression apparatus uses line-vectors, context-dependent quantization thresholds, hierarchical tree-structured displacement coding, synchronous prediction, and conditional zerotree branch updates to improve intra- and inter-frame coding speed and efficiency, and to improve video stream noise resilience. The disclosed intra-frame coding methods can be used to improve the coding efficiency of wavelet-based still-image compression algorithms.
