Simple Fast and Adaptive Lossless Image Compression Algorithm
Simple Fast and Adaptive Lossless Image Compression Algorithm Roman Starosolski¤ December 20, 2006 This is a preprint of an article published in Software|Practice and Experience, 2007, 37(1):65-91, DOI: 10.1002/spe.746 Copyright °c 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. http://www.interscience.wiley.com Abstract In this paper we present a new lossless image compression algorithm. To achieve the high compression speed we use a linear prediction, modi¯ed Golomb{Rice code family, and a very fast prediction error modeling method. We compare the algo- rithm experimentally with others for medical and natural continuous tone grayscale images of depths of up to 16 bits. Its results are especially good for big images, for natural images of high bit depths, and for noisy images. The average compression speed on Intel Xeon 3.06 GHz CPU is 47 MB/s. For big images the speed is over 60 MB/s, i.e., the algorithm needs less than 50 CPU cycles per byte of image. KEY WORDS: lossless image compression; predictive coding; adaptive modeling; medical imaging; Golomb{Rice codes 1 Introduction Lossless image compression algorithms are generally used for images that are documents and when lossy compression is not applicable. Lossless algorithms are especially impor- tant for systems transmitting and archiving medical data, because lossy compression of medical images used for diagnostic purposes is, in many countries, forbidden by law. Furthermore, we have to use lossless image compression when we are unsure whether dis- carding information contained in the image is applicable or not. The latter case happens frequently while transmitting images by the system not being aware of the images' use, e.g., while transmitting them directly from the acquisition device or transmitting over the network images to be processed further. -

A New Lossless Image Compression Algorithm Based on Arithmetic Coding
A New Lossless Image Compression Algorithm Based on Arithmetic Coding Bruno Carpentieri Dipartimento di Informatica ed Applicazioni "R. 3/1.. Capocelli" Universita' di Salerno 84081 Baronissi (SA), ltaly Abstract We present a new lossless image compression algorithm based on Arithmetic Coding. Our algorithm seleots appropriately, for each pixel position, one of a large number of possible, d3mamic , probability dish-ibutions, and encodes the current pixel prediction error by using this distribution as the model for the arithmetic encoder. We have experimentally compared our algorithm with Lossless JPEG, that is currently the lossless image compression standard, and also with FELICS and other lossless compression algorithms. Our tests show that the new algorithm outperforms Lossless JPEG and FELICS leading to a compression improvement of about 12% over Lossless JPEG and 10% over FF~LICS. I Introduction Compression is the coding of data to minimize its representation. The compression of images is motivated by the economic and logistic needs to conserve space in storage media and to save bandwidth in communication. In compressed form data can be stored more compactly and transmitted more rapidly. There are two basic reasons for expecting to be able to compress images. First, the information itself contains redundancies in the form of non uniform distribution of signal values (spatial correlation). Second, the act of digitizing contributes an expansion. The compression process is called lossless compression (also reversible or noiseless coding or redundancy reduction) if the original can be exactly reconstructed from the compressed copy; otherwise it is called los~y compression (also irreversible or fidelity-reducing coding or entropy reduction). -
Image Compression Using Clustering Techniques
International Journal of Computer Science Engineering and Information Technology Research (IJCSEITR) ISSN 2249-6831 Vol. 3, Issue 1, Mar 2013, 109-116 © TJPRC Pvt. Ltd. IMAGE COMPRESSION USING CLUSTERING TECHNIQUES DIVYA MOHAN & NISHA JOSEPH Assistant Professor, CSE, SAINTGITS College of Engineering, Kottayam, India ABSTRACT This paper deals mainly with the image compression algorithms. Context-based modeling is an important step in image compression. It is very difficult to define and utilize contexts for natural images effectively. This is primarily due to the huge number of contexts available in natural images. we used optimized clustering algorithms to compress images effectively by making use of a large number of image contexts. The goal of clustering is to separate a finite unlabeled data set into a finite and discrete set of natural, hidden data structures, rather than provide an accurate characterization of unobserved samples generated from the same probability distribution. This theory is used here for compressing images containing large number of similar contexts. There are many clustering algorithms exist like grid based clustering algorithm, density based clustering algorithm, hierarchical algorithm, partitioning algorithm and model based algorithm. Since images contain large number of varying density regions, we used an optimized density based algorithm from a pool. KEYWORDS: Context Modeling, PPM, Prediction by Partial Approximate Matching (PPAM), Varied Density Based Clustering Applications with Noise (VDBSCAN) INTRODUCTION Image compression is minimizing the size in bytes of a graphics file without degrading the quality of the image to an unacceptable level. The reduction in file size allows more images to be stored in a given amount of disk or memory space. -
The LOCO-I Lossless Image Compression Algorithm: Principles and Standardization Into JPEG-LS
The LOCO-I Lossless Image Compression Algorithm: Principles and Standardization into JPEG-LS Marcelo J. Weinberger and Gadiel Seroussi Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA Guillermo Sapiro∗ Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA. Abstract LOCO-I (LOw COmplexity LOssless COmpression for Images) is the algorithm at the core of the new ISO/ITU standard for lossless and near-lossless compression of continuous-tone images, JPEG-LS. It is conceived as a “low complexity projection” of the universal context modeling paradigm, matching its modeling unit to a simple coding unit. By combining simplicity with the compression potential of context models, the algorithm “enjoys the best of both worlds.” It is based on a simple fixed context model, which approaches the capability of the more complex universal techniques for capturing high-order dependencies. The model is tuned for efficient performance in conjunction with an extended family of Golomb-type codes, which are adaptively chosen, and an embedded alphabet extension for coding of low-entropy image regions. LOCO-I attains compression ratios similar or superior to those obtained with state-of-the-art schemes based on arithmetic coding. Moreover, it is within a few percentage points of the best available compression ratios, at a much lower complexity level. We discuss the principles underlying the design of LOCO-I, and its standardization into JPEG-LS. Index Terms: Lossless image compression, standards, Golomb codes, geometric distribution, context modeling, near-lossless compression. ∗This author’s contribution was made while he was with Hewlett-Packard Laboratories. 1 Introduction LOCO-I (LOw COmplexity LOssless COmpression for Images) is the algorithm at the core of the new ISO/ITU standard for lossless and near-lossless compression of continuous-tone images, JPEG-LS. -

Performance Evaluation of Lossless Medical and Natural Continuous Tone Image Compression Algorithms
Performance evaluation of lossless medical and natural continuous tone image compression algorithms Roman Starosolski* Institute of Computer Science, Silesian University of Technology Akademicka 16, 44-100 Gliwice, Poland ABSTRACT In this study we evaluate the performance of several lossless grayscale image compression algorithms: algorithms that are standards in medical image transmitting and archiving systems, other algorithms used for compressing medical images in practice and in image compression research, and of a couple of universal algorithms applied to raw and preprocessed image data. In the experiments we use a new, publicly available, test image set, which is described in detail in the paper. The set contains about one hundred images, mainly medical images of various modalities (CR, CT, MR, and US) and natural continuous tone grayscale images of various sizes and various bit depths (up to 16 bits per pixel). We analyze algorithm performance with respect to image modality, depth, and size. Our results generally adhere to results reported in other studies, however, we find that some common opinions on performance of popular algorithms are imprecise, or even false. Most interesting observation concerning the compression speed is that the speed of many algorithms is relatively low, e.g., JPEG2000 obtains speed close to CALIC algorithm, which is considered to be slow. On the other hand there exist algorithms much faster than the JPEG-LS (i.e., SZIP and SFALIC). Considering the compression ratio, the most interesting results were obtained for high bit depth medical CT and MR images, which are of sparse histograms. For better compression ratios of those images, instead of standard image compression algorithms, we should either use universal algorithms or employ the histogram packing technique prior to actual image compression. -
Modified Golomb-Rice Codes for Lossless Compression of Medical Images
Modified Golomb-Rice Codes for Lossless Compression of Medical Images Roman Starosolski (1), Władysław Skarbek (2) (1) Silesian University of Technology (2) Warsaw University of Technology Abstract Lossless image compression algorithms are used for images that are documents, when lossy compression is not accepted by users, or when we have no knowledge whether lossy compression is allowed or not. Lossless algorithms are especially important for systems transmitting and archiving medical data, because on the one hand lossy compression of medical images used for diagnostic purposes is forbidden by law, on the other hand the number and sizes of medical images stored or transmitted grows rapidly. Image compression researchers usually focus on results obtained for typical data, however for real life systems results for non-typical data should also be considered. For a compression algorithm the worst case image data results in data expansion. In applications, the results of compressing non-typical data should be known and the data expansion, unavoidable while processing incompressible data, should be minimized by the rule: primum non nocere. In the paper we analyze the Golomb-Rice (GR) family of codes, infinite family of prefix codes optimal for encoding symbols of exponential probability distribution. The GR family is used in predictive lossless image compression algorithms since the probability distribution of symbols encoded by those algorithms for typical images is close to exponential. The modified GR family of limited codeword length is used in the JPEG-LS algorithm recently included in the DICOM standard. In the paper we analyze effects of using both the GR and the limited codeword length GR codes for encoding actual images, where the set of encoded symbols is finite and the probability distribution is not exactly exponential. -
JPEG - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
JPEG - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jpeg JPEG From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Jpeg) JPEG In computing, JPEG (pronounced JAY-peg; IPA: /ˈdʒeɪpɛg/) is a commonly used method of compression for photographic images. The name JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group, the name of the committee that created the standard. The group was organized in 1986, issuing a standard in 1992, which was approved in 1994 as ISO 10918-1. JPEG is distinct from MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group), which produces compression schemes for video. The JPEG standard specifies both the codec, which defines how an image is compressed into a stream of bytes and decompressed back into an image, and the file format used to contain that stream. The compression method is usually lossy compression, meaning that some visual quality is lost in the process, although there are variations on the standard baseline JPEG that are lossless. There is also an interlaced "Progressive JPEG" format, in which data is compressed in multiple passes of A photo of a flower compressed with successively more lossy compression ratios from left to right. File extension: .jpeg, .jpg, .jpe .jfif, .jfi, .jif (containers) MIME type: image/jpeg Type code: JPEG Uniform Type public.jpeg Identifier: Developed by: Joint Photographic Experts Group progressively higher detail. This is ideal for large images that will be displayed whilst downloading over a slow connection, allowing a reasonable preview after receiving only a portion of the data. However, progressive JPEGs are not as widely supported. The file format is known as 'JPEG Interchange Format', as specified in Annex B of the standard.
