Abstract

In this paper, I propose the wavelet image coding method using band adaptive quantization and the significant cluster extraction. The proposed method can reduce to unnecessary additional seed data which create on conventional MRWD coding, because it eliminate cluster which smaller than structuring element by using morphology. And it make fast coding possible, because it is reduced to computational complexity by using band adaptive quantization. Consequently, the proposed method reduces computational complexity with $20\%{\~}33.3\%$ according to bit rate in quantization process.

본 논문에서는 대역 적응 양자화와 중요 클러스터 추출을 이용한 웨이브릿 영상 부호화 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 모폴로지를 이용하여 형태소보다 적은 클러스터를 제거함으로써 기존의 MRWD 부호화에서 생성되는 불필요한 부가정보를 감소시킨다. 그리고 대역 적응 양자화를 이용하여 양자화 과정에 소요되는 계산량을 감소시킴으로써 고속 부호화를 가능하게 한다. 실험결과 제안한 방법은 양자화 계산량이 비트율에 따라 $20\%{\~}33.3\%$ 감소함을 알 수 있었다.
