Near-lossless image compression: minimum-entropy, constrained-error DPCM
1Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA.
Abstract:
A near-lossless image compression scheme is presented. It is essentially a differential pulse code modulation (DPCM) system with a mechanism incorporated to minimize the entropy of the quantized prediction error sequence. With a "near-lossless" criterion of no more than a d gray-level error for each pixel, where d is a small nonnegative integer, trellises describing all allowable quantized prediction error sequences are constructed. A set of "contexts" is defined for the conditioning prediction error model and an algorithm that produces minimum entropy conditioned on the contexts is presented. Finally, experimental results are given.

Attenuation
When constant series resistance and shunt conductance are present, voltage and current equations are modified. The propagation constant indicates that voltage and current waves consist of both forward and backward traveling components. These waves attenuate as they propagate, with the attenuation factor related to the resistance and conductance. In a...
