최근 3D의 발전으로 다음 세대의 3D 기술로 디지털 홀로그램을 지목하고 있다. 질 좋은 홀로그램을 디스플레이 하려면 디스플레이 장치의 화소의 크기가 더 작아져야하고 고 해상도의 홀로그램 콘텐츠가 필요하다. 이처럼 고해상도의 홀로그램 콘텐츠를 상용화하기 위해서는 기존 2D영상에 사용되고 있는 압축 등의 영상처리 기법들이 필요하다. 하지만 홀로그램 특성상 기존 2D 영상에 이용되는 영상처리 기법을 적용하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이 문제점을 해결하기 위해 홀로그램을 Fresnelet 변환을 이용하여 기존 2D영상 처리 기법을 사용할 수 있는 에너지 특성을 분석 하였다.

In this paper, we propose an efficient coding method of digital hologram using standard compression tools for video images. At first, we convert fringe patterns into video data using a principle of CGH(Computer Generated Hologram), and then encode it. In this research, we propose a compression algorithm is made up of various method such as pre-processing for transform, local segmentation with global information of object image, frequency transform for coding, scanning to make fringe to video stream, classification of coefficients, and hybrid video coding. The proposed algorithm illustrated that it have better properties for reconstruction and compression rate than the previous methods.

In this paper, we proposed a new technique to encode and decode the digital hologram. Since the digital hologram (or fringe pattern) is generated by interference of light, it has much different property from natural 2D (2 dimensional) images. First, we acquisite optical-sensed or computer-generated hologram by digital type, and then extract a chrominance component. The extracted digital hologram for coding is separated into segments to use multi-view properties. The segmented hologram shows the similar characteristics with picturing an object with 2D cameras in various point of view. Since fringe pattern is visually observed like as noise, we expect that the fringe pattern has poor coding efficiency. To obtain high efficiency, the segment is transformed with DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) which resembles hologram generation process with high performance. Each transformed segment passes the 3D scanning process according to time and spatial correlation, and is organized into a video stream. Since the segment which correspond to frame of a video stream consists of the transformed coefficients with wide range of value, it is classified and re-normalized. Finally it is compressed with coding tools. The proposed algorithm illustrated that it has better properties for reconstruction of 16 times higher compression rate than the previous researches.

In this paper, we analyze the normalization that occurs when processing digital hologram and propose an optimized quantization method. In JPEG Pleno, which standardizes the compression of holograms, full complex holograms are defined as complex numbers with 32-bit or 64-bit precision, and the range of values varies greatly depending on the method of hologram generation and object type. Such data with high precision and wide dynamic range are converted to fixed-point or integer numbers with lower precision for signal processing and compression. In addition, in order to reconstruct the hologram to the SLM (spatial light modulator), it is approximated with a precision of a value that can be expressed by the pixels of the SLM. This process can be refereed as a normalization process using quantization. In this paper, we introduce a method for normalizing high precision and wide range hologram using quantization technique and propose an optimized method.

This paper proposes a method to solve problems that may occur when SPIHT(set partition in hierarchical trees) is used in a dedicated codec for compressing complex holograms with ultra-high resolution. The development of codecs for complex holograms can be largely divided into a method of creating dedicated compression methods and a method of using anchor codecs such as HEVC and JPEG2000 and adding post-processing techniques. In the case of creating a dedicated compression method, a separate conversion tool is required to analyze the spatial characteristics of complex holograms. Zero-tree-based algorithms in subband units such as EZW and SPIHT have a problem that when coding for high-resolution images, intact subband information is not properly transmitted during bitstream control. This paper proposes a method of dividing wavelet subbands to solve such a problem. By compressing each divided subbands, information throughout the subbands is kept uniform. The proposed method showed better restoration results than PSNR compared to the existing method.

In this paper, we discuss and propose a new algorithm of coding technique for scalably servicing holographic video in various decoding environment. The proposed algorithm consists of the hologram-based resolution scalable coding (HRS) and the light source-based SNR scalable coding (LSS). They are classified by the method generating and capturing hologram. HRS is a scalable coding technique for the optically captured hologram and LSS is one for the light source before generating hologram. HRS can provide the scalable service of 8 steps with the compression ratio from 1:1 to 100:1 for a $1,024{\times}1,024$ hologram. LSS can also provide the various service depending on the number of the light source division using lossless compression. The proposed techniques showed the scalable holographic video service according to the display with the various resolutions, computational power of the receiving equipment, and the network bandwidth.

디지털 홀로그래피(holography) 기술은 3차원 물체의 정보를 디지털 영상으로 기록하고 복원하는 기술이다. PSI(Phase-shifting interferometry) 디지털 홀로그래피는 여러 장의 간섭 패턴 영상으로부터 홀로그램(hologram)을 합성하고, 이로부터 3차원 영상을 복원하는 대표적인 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 PSI 디지털 홀로그램 생성에 사용되는 여러 장의 간섭 패턴 영상의 효율적인 압축 기법을 제안한다. 먼저 네 개의 간섭패턴 영상에서 JPEG2000 기반의 비트율-왜곡(rate-distortion) 특성을 분석한다. 이에 기반하여 주어진 비트량을 일정 크기 단위로 사용할 때, 복원 영상의 왜곡을 가장 효과적으로 줄일 수 있는 간섭 패턴 영상에 우선적으로 비트량을 할당한다. 실험을 통하여 제안하는 알고리듬은 네 개의 간섭패턴 영상마다 동일한 비트량을 할당하여 압축하는 기존의 방법에 비해 비트율-왜곡 측면에서 복원 영상의 왜곡을 더 효과적으로 줄일 수 있음을 확인한다.

최근 3D의 발전으로 다음 세대의 3D 기술로 디지털 홀로그램을 지목하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 CGH 영상에서 Fresnelet 변환을 통해 주파수 영역에서 각각의 부대역의 특성에 따라 양자화를 다르게 적용하였고, 무손실 부호화인 허프만 코딩을 이용하여 데이터를 압축하는 방법을 제안한다. 실험결과 영상 품질이 다소 열화 되었다는 것을 PSNR 감소를 통해 알 수 있었고, PSNR이 33.50dB인 영상과 원본 영상을 비교하였을 때, 아주 좋은 영상 품직을 갖는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 압축률은 PSNR 33.5dB에서 약 50:1의 결과를 보였다.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a service system for a digital hologram video, which has not been published yet. This system assumes the existing service framework for 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional image/video, which includes data acquisition, processing, transmission, reception, and reconstruction. This system includes acquisition of color and depth image pairs from a image acquisition system with vertical rigs, rectification of acquired image pairs and generating digital hologram. Also it is designed to reduce the CGH (computer-generated hologram) generation time to 1/3. It also includes some additional and optional functions such as watermarking, compression, and encryption.
