ISO Update 01 October to 31 October 2010 International Standards in process An International Standard is the result of an agreement between the member bodies of ISO. A first important step towards an International Standard takes the form of a committee draft (CD) - this is circulated for study within an ISO technical committee. When consensus has been reached within the technical committee, the document is sent to the Central Secretariat for processing as a draft International Standard (DIS). The DIS requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. A confirmation vote is subsequently carried out on a final draft International Standard (FDIS), the approval criteria remaining the same.

This paper gives discussion of image partition and Discrete Cosine Transform based coder, the JPEG2000 uses windowing techniques. Further frequency transform and a Discrete Wavelet Transform based coder for better coding quantization is also addressed. A brief insight into Predication, Adaptive Encode and Packetization has been provided in the efficiency. The JPEG2000 not only enhances the paper. compression, but also includes many new features, such as quality scalability, resolution scalability, region of interest, Index Terms—JPEG XR, encoder, PCT, quantization, and lossy/lossless coding in a unified framework.

  • JPEG 2000 - a Practical Digital Preservation Standard?
    Technology Watch Report JPEG 2000 - a Practical Digital Preservation Standard? Robert Buckley, Ph.D. Xerox Research Center Webster Webster, New York DPC Technology Watch Series Report 08-01 February 2008 © Digital Preservation Coalition 2008 1 Executive Summary JPEG 2000 is a wavelet-based standard for the compression of still digital images. It was developed by the ISO JPEG committee to improve on the performance of JPEG while adding significant new features and capabilities to enable new imaging applications. The JPEG 2000 compression method is part of a multi-part standard that defines a compression architecture, file format family, client-server protocol and other components for advanced applications. Instead of replacing JPEG, JPEG 2000 has created new opportunities in geospatial and medical imaging, digital cinema, image repositories and networked image access. These opportunities are enabled by the JPEG 2000 feature set: • A single architecture for lossless and visually lossless image compression • A single JPEG 2000 master image can supply multiple derivative images • Progressive display, multi-resolution imaging and scalable image quality • The ability to handle large and high-dynamic range images • Generous metadata support With JPEG 2000, an application can access and decode only as much of the compressed image as needed to perform the task at hand. This means a viewer, for example, can open a gigapixel image almost instantly by retrieving and decompressing a low resolution, display-sized image from the JPEG 2000 codestream. JPEG 2000 also improves a user’s ability to interact with an image. The zoom, pan, and rotate operations that users increasingly expect in networked image systems are performed dynamically by accessing and decompressing just those parts of the JPEG 2000 codestream containing the compressed image data for the region of interest.

  • High Efficiency Image File Format Implementation
    LASSE HEIKKILÄ HIGH EFFICIENCY IMAGE FILE FORMAT IMPLEMENTATION Master of Science thesis Examiner: Prof. Petri Ihantola Examiner and topic approved by the Faculty Council of the Faculty of Computing and Electrical Engineering on 4th of May 2016 i ABSTRACT LASSE HEIKKILÄ: High Efficiency Image File Format implementation Tampere University of Technology Master of Science thesis, 49 pages, 1 Appendix page June 2016 Master’s Degree Programme in Electrical Engineering Technology Major: Embedded systems Examiner: Prof. Petri Ihantola Keywords: High Efficiency Image File Format, HEIF, HEVC During recent years, methods used to encode video have been developing quickly. However, image file formats commonly used for saving still images, such as PNG and JPEG, are originating from the 1990s. Therefore it is often possible to get better image quality and smaller file sizes, when photographs are compressed with modern video compression techniques. The High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard was finalized in 2013, and in the same year work for utilizing it for still image storage started. The resulting High Efficiency Image File Format (HEIF) standard offers a competitive image data compression ratio, and several other features such as support for image sequences and non-destructive editing. During this thesis work, writer and reader programs for handling HEIF files were developed. Together with an HEVC encoder the writer can create HEIF compliant files. By utilizing the reader and an HEVC decoder, an HEIF player program can then present images from HEIF files without the most detailed knowledge about their low-level structure. To make development work easier, and improve the extensibility and maintainability of the programs, code correctness and simplicity were given special attention.
