Binary MQ arithmetic coding is widely used recently as a basic entropy coder in multimedia coding system. MQ coder esteems high in compression efficiency to be used in JBIG2 and JPEG2000. The importance of arithmetic coding is increasing after it is adopted as an unique entropy coder in HEVC standard. In the binary MQ coder, arithmetic approximation without multiplication is used in the process of recursive subdivision of range interval. Because of the MPS/LPS exchange activity happened in MQ coder, output byte tends to increase. This paper proposes an enhanced binary MQ arithmetic coder to make use of a lookup table for AQe using quantization skill in order to reduce the deficiency. Experimental results show that about 4% improvement of compression in case of JBIG2 for bi-level image compression standard. And also, about 1% improvement of compression ratio is obtained in case of lossless JPEG2000 coding. For the lossy JPEG2000 coding, about 1% improvement of PSNR at the same compression ratio. Additionally, computational complexity is not increasing.

In a distribution of the digital image, there is a serious problem that is distributed an illegal forgery image by pirates. For the problem solution, this paper proposes an image forensic decision algorithm using an edge energy information of forgery image. The algorithm uses SA (Streaking Artifacts) and SPAM (Subtractive Pixel Adjacency Matrix) to extract the edge energy informations of original image according to JPEG compression rate(QF=90, 70, 50 and 30) and the query image. And then it decides the forge whether or not by comparing the edge informations between the original and query image each other. According to each threshold in TCJCR (Threshold by Combination of JPEG Compression Ratios), the matching of the edge informations of original and query image is excused. Through the matching experiments, TP (True Positive) and FN (False Negative) is 87.2% and 13.8% respectively. Thus, the minimum average decision error is 0.1349. Also, it is confirmed that the performed class evaluation of the proposed algorithm is 'Excellent(A)' because of the AUROC (Area Under Receiver Operating Characteristic) curve is 0.9388 by sensitivity and 1-specificity.

While the Motion JPEG2000 has been considered as a unique encoder for digital cinema due to its high quality coding and large screen format, the realization of a digital cinema system and its service cost enormous fund and time. In this paper a digital cinema transmission system with PC and RTP protocol over the Internet is proposed, and showed how tiles of moving images are transmitted, decoded independently and combined to reconstruct and display at a large screen for digital cinema service. The simulation has been carried out for tiles of 128${\times}$128, 256${\times}$256, 512${\times}$512, and 1024${\times}$1024 pixels. In the experiment, two clients of PC’s received and decoded tiles of video and constructed whole size of moving images successfully. The PSNR’s of the video ranges 30dB to 40dB at compression rate of 160:1 and 30dB to 50dB at and below 16:1, respectively. The result showed a possibility for the reconstruction of video in multi-vision.

A digitized image passes by encoding, storing or transmitting to show it to users. In this process, may be users would want to see a specific region of the image. And depending on the system features or in the case that the resolution of the image is large, it will take a huge time that the image show to the users. In this time, it will be resonable that the part users want to see shows earlier and afterward the other parts show. For this, JPEG2000 standards provide ROI. Although ROI extraction that users specify ROI arbitrarily is the best, people not always participate in doing all the images. There needs an automatic ROI extracting and storing in some images. JPEG2000 should extract and send an ROI automatically when the images is encoded without ROI. This study proposes a method that automatically extracts an ROI, makes the ROI masks, transfers the masked image preferentially and the background. And the study compares and experiments the proposed method and the method not having ROI.

Image data is mostly stored in compressed form because of its huge size. Therefore, a series of cumbersome procedures is required to apply a transformation to image data: decompression, extraction of spatial data, transformation and recompression. In this paper, we employ DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) coefficients to change the spatial presentation of images. DCT is commonly used in still image compression standards such as JPEG and moving picture compression standards such as MPEG-2, MPEG-4, and H.264. In this paper, we derived mathematically the relationship between the geometry transformation in the spatial domain and coefficient changes in the DCT domain and verified it with images in the JPEG file format. Because of the efficiency of transformation in the frequency domain, our findings can be utilized for light-weight partial image encryption for privacy data protection or entertainment contents protection.

In this paper, we propose a optimized steganography how to improve the image degradation of the existing data hiding techniques. This method operates in the compressed domain(JPEG) of an image. Most of the current information concealment methods generally change the coefficients to hide information. And several methods have tried to improve the performance of a typical steganography method such as F5 including a matrix encoding. Those papers achieved the object of reducing the distortion which is generated as hiding data in coefficients of compressed domain. In the proposed paper we analyzed the effect of the quantization table for hiding the data in the compressed domain. As a result, it found that can decrease the distortion that occur in the application of steganography techniques. This paper provides a little (Maximum: approximately 6.5%) further improved results in terms of image quality in a data hiding on compressed domain. Developed algorithm help improve the data hiding performance of compressed image other than the JPEG.

In this paper, we propose a method of compressing digital hologram standardized data provided by JPEG Pleno. In numerical reconstruction of digital holograms, the addition of random phases for visualization reduces speckle noise due to interference and doubles the compression efficiency of holograms. Holograms are composed of completely complex floating point data, and due to ultra-high resolution and speckle noise, it is essential to develop a compression technology tailored to the characteristics of the hologram. First, frequency characteristics of hologram data are analyzed using various wavelet filters to analyze energy concentration according to filter types. Second, we introduce the subband selection algorithm using energy concentration. Finally, the JPEG2000, SPIHT, H.264 results using the Daubechies 9/7 wavelet filter of JPEG2000 and the proposed method are used to compress and restore, and the efficiency is analyzed through quantitative quality evaluation compared to the compression rate.

Recently, in the mobile device, the increase of the need for encoding and decoding of high-resolution images requires an efficient implementation of the image codec. This paper proposes a time-optimized color conversion method for the JPEG decoder, which reduces the number of calculations in the color conversion by the rearrangement of arithmetic operations being possible due to the linearity of the IDCT and the color conversion matrices and brings down the time complexity of the color conversion itself by the integer mapping replacing floating-point operations to the optimal fixed-point shift and addition operations, eventually reducing the time complexity of the JPEG decoder. And the proposed method compensates a decline of image quality incurred by the quantification error of the operation arrangement and the integer mapping by using the multi-mode chrominance reconstruction. The performance evaluation performed on the development platform of embedded systems showed that, compared to previous color conversion methods, the proposed method greatly reduces the image decoding time, minimizing the distortion of decoded images.

The requirement of a system-on-a-chip (SoC) design is increasing, which combines various and complex functional units on a single device. However, short time to market prohibits to release the device. To satisfy this shorter time-to-market, verification of both hardware and software at the same time is important. A virtual platform-based design method supports faster verification of these combined software and hardware by reusing pre-defined intellectual properties (IP). In this paper, we introduce the virtual platform-based design and redesign the existing ARM processor based S3C2440A system using the virtual platform-based method. In addtion, we implement and evaluate the performance of a JPEG decoder on the S3C2440A virtual platform. Furthermore, we introduce an optimized technique of the JPEG decoder using the ARM based inline assembly language, and then verify the performance improvement on the virtual platform. Such virtual platform-based design allows to verify both software and hardware at the same time and can meet the requirement of the shorter time-to-market.
