In this paper, we have addressed a new approach to encode the DCT coefficients efficiently by exploiting the structural differences among the probability distribution functions of them. We have proved analytically that if signals are separated according to their source models, the entropy of the separated signals decreases below that of the unseparated signals. And simulation results show that the average codelength decrease when each (runlength, level) symbol is encoded adaptively according to the index associated with the symbol.

This paper presents an approach to classify normal and arrhythmia from the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database using Discrete Cosine Transform(DCT), Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT) and neural network. In the first step, Discrete Cosine Transform is used to obtain the representative 15 coefficients for input features of neural network. In the second step, Discrete Wavelet Transform are used to extract maximum value, minimum value, mean value, variance, and standard deviation of detail coefficients. Neural network classifies normal and arrhythmia beats using 55 numbers of input features, and then the accuracy rate is 98.8%.

Buyer-seller watermarking protocol is one of the copyright protection techniques which combine a cryptographic protocol used in electronic commerce with a digital wetermarking scheme aiming at proving the ownership of multimedia contents and preventing the illegal reproduction and redistribution of digital contents. In this paper, it is proposed a new watermarking scheme in an encrypted domain in an image that is based on the block-DCT framework. In order to implement watermarking scheme in a public-key cryptosystem, it is divided that frequency coefficients exist as real number into integer and decimal layer. And the decimal layer is modified integer type through integral-processing. Also, for robustness and invisibility required in watermarking scheme, it is designed a direction-adaptive watermarking scheme based on locally edge-properties of each block in an image through analyzing distribution property of the frequency coefficients in a block using JND threshold.

In this paper, we proposed the novel digital watermarking for color still image using the characteristics of human visual system and the distribution of DCT coefficients. We insert watermark signal in the chromatic components of YCrCb color space according the characteristics of the human visual system that chromatic component are less sensitive than achromatic components. In order to extract the watermark signal, we use the relationship among the DCT coefficients of watermarked image without using original one. Simulation results show that the proposed watermarking method is better quality on invisibility than the conventional methods.

Anchor-person scene detection is of significance for video shot semantic parsing and indexing clues extraction in content-based news video indexing and retrieval system. This paper proposes an efficient algorithm extracting anchor ranges that exist in sports news video for unit structuring of sports news. To detect anchor person scenes, first, anchor person candidate scene is decided by DCT coefficients and motion vector information in the MPEG4 compressed video. Then, from the candidate anchor scenes, image processing method is utilized to classify the news video into anchor-person scenes and non-anchor(sports) scenes. The proposed scheme achieves a mean precision and recall of 98% in the anchor-person scenes detection experiment.

In this paper,we propose a new algorithm to perform DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) withn the area reduced by prdeicting position of quantization coefficients to be zero.This proposed algorithm not only decreases the enoding time and the decoding time by reducing computation amount of FDCT(Forward DCT)and IDCT(Inverse DCT) but also increases comprossion ratio by performing each diffirent horizontal- vereical zig-zag scan assording to the calssified block size for each block on the huffiman coeing.Traditional image coding method performs the samd DCT computation and zig-zag scan over all blocks,however this proposed algorthm reduces FDCT computation time by setting to zero insted of computing DCT for quantization codfficients outside classfified block size on the encoding.Also,the algorithm reduces IDCT computation the by performing IDCT for only dequantization coefficients within calssified block size on the decoding.In addition, the algorithm reduces Run-Length by carrying out horizontal-vertical zig-zag scan approriate to the slassified block chraateristics,thus providing the improverment of the compression ratio,On the on ther hand,this proposed algorithm can be applied to 16*16 block processing in which the compression ratio and the image resolution are optimal but the encoding time and the decoding time take long.Also,the algorithm can be extended to motion image coding requirng real time processing.

This paper addressed an another scheme of distortion estimation method based on simplified inverse quantization in H.264/AVC. The distortion is calculated by the difference of coefficient between quantized transform coefficients and that of inverse. In general, these process included such transforms as discrete cosine transform(DCT), quantization, inverse quantization(IQ), and Inverse DCT(IDCT). In proposed approach, IQ as well as IDCT process are skipped because of replacing a couple of approximated formulas. Some simulation have been conducted and it showed that the PSNR was almost the same, and reduced the rate-distortion optimization(RDO) mode decision time of 8~15% in comparison with conventional method.

A visually adaptive quantization method of DCT-based images based on Human Visual System(HVS) is proposed. This approach uses the spatial masking in HVS characteristics to obtain higher compression ratio with relatively small degradation in the image quality. HVS is nonsensitive to an edge area, so a high complexity area is quantized coarsely in contrast to fine quantization of the low complexity area. The complexity of an area is estimated by the variance of DCT coefficients of the image. Experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed method and the resulting images show little difference from the original image in the subjective perception.

Image noise reduction in the frequency domain by thresholding is simple, but quite effective. Wavelet domain thresholding has been an active area of research but relatively little work has been published on DCT domain denoising. A novel method for determining the hard threshold for the DCT domain denoising is proposed. The low amplitude DCT coefficients are discarded until the cumulative sum of the discarded signal energy is comparable to that of noise in each DCT block. Cycle spinning is also applied to reduce block artifacts. The proposed method is quite effective and simple enough to be used in portable devices.

문선 채널에서 신뢰성 있는 실시간 동영상 서비스를 하기 위해서는 비디오 스트림 내에서 오류가 발생한 블록의 위치를 알아야 정확한 오류 복구가 가능하다. 이전의 오류 검출 연구들은 대부분 픽셀 단위로 비교하므로 계산량이 많은 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 실시간 서비스를 고려하여 계산량이 적은 블록 단위의 오류 검출 기법을 제안한다. 블록 내의 DCT 계수를 이용하여 오류를 검출한다. DC 계수를 이용해 1차 임계치를 비교한 후 AC 계수를 이용해 에지를 검출한다. 애지가 존재하는 블록에 대해 2차 임계치를 비교하여 오류 여부를 판단한다. DCT 계수 정보를 직접 이용할 수 없는 P, B 프레임에서 DCT 계수를 추정할 수 있는 방법도 함께 제안한다. 제안한 오류 검출 기법을 실제 구현하여 성능을 측정한다.
