  • Lossy Image Compression Based on Prediction Error and Vector Quantisation Mohamed Uvaze Ahamed Ayoobkhan* , Eswaran Chikkannan and Kannan Ramakrishnan
    Ayoobkhan et al. EURASIP Journal on Image and Video Processing (2017) 2017:35 EURASIP Journal on Image DOI 10.1186/s13640-017-0184-3 and Video Processing RESEARCH Open Access Lossy image compression based on prediction error and vector quantisation Mohamed Uvaze Ahamed Ayoobkhan* , Eswaran Chikkannan and Kannan Ramakrishnan Abstract Lossy image compression has been gaining importance in recent years due to the enormous increase in the volume of image data employed for Internet and other applications. In a lossy compression, it is essential to ensure that the compression process does not affect the quality of the image adversely. The performance of a lossy compression algorithm is evaluated based on two conflicting parameters, namely, compression ratio and image quality which is usually measured by PSNR values. In this paper, a new lossy compression method denoted as PE-VQ method is proposed which employs prediction error and vector quantization (VQ) concepts. An optimum codebook is generated by using a combination of two algorithms, namely, artificial bee colony and genetic algorithms. The performance of the proposed PE-VQ method is evaluated in terms of compression ratio (CR) and PSNR values using three different types of databases, namely, CLEF med 2009, Corel 1 k and standard images (Lena, Barbara etc.). Experiments are conducted for different codebook sizes and for different CR values. The results show that for a given CR, the proposed PE-VQ technique yields higher PSNR value compared to the existing algorithms. It is also shown that higher PSNR values can be obtained by applying VQ on prediction errors rather than on the original image pixels.

  • UNIT-II GPS Systems:NAVSTAR-GLONAAS-Beidou-QZSS-IRNSS-GPS Receivers Based On: Data Type and Yield-Realization of Channels-Signal
    UNIT-II GPS systems:NAVSTAR-GLONAAS-Beidou-QZSS-IRNSS-GPS receivers based on: Data type and yield-Realization of channels-Signal structure:Course Acquisition(code)-Carrier ranging and Navigational message Global Positioning System (GPS), originally Navstar GPS,[1] is a satellite-based radionavigation system owned by the United States government and operated by the United States Space Force.[2] It is one of the global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) that provides geolocation and time information to a GPS receiver anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites.[3] Obstacles such as mountains and buildings block the relatively weak GPS signals. The GPS does not require the user to transmit any data, and it operates independently of any telephonic or internet reception, though these technologies can enhance the usefulness of the GPS positioning information. The GPS provides critical positioning capabilities to military, civil, and commercial users around the world. The United States government created the system, maintains it, and makes it freely accessible to anyone with a GPS receiver.[4][better source needed] The GPS project was started by the U.S. Department of Defense in 1973, with the first prototype spacecraft launched in 1978 and the full constellation of 24 satellites operational in 1993. Originally limited to use by the United States military, civilian use was allowed from the 1980s following an executive order from President Ronald Reagan.[5] Advances in technology and new demands on the existing system have now led to efforts to modernize the GPS and implement the next generation of GPS Block IIIA satellites and Next Generation Operational Control System (OCX).[6] Announcements from Vice President Al Gore and the Clinton Administration in 1998 initiated these changes, which were authorized by the U.S.

  • Understanding Compression of Geospatial Raster Imagery
    Understanding Compression of Geospatial Raster Imagery Document Overview This document was created for the North Carolina Geographic Information and Coordinating Council (GICC), http://ncgicc.com, by the GIS Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). Its purpose is to serve as a best practice or guidance document for GIS professionals that are compressing raster images. This document only addresses compressing geospatial raster data and specifically aerial or orthorectified imagery. It does not address compressing LiDAR data. Compression Overview Compression is the process of making data more compact so it occupies less disk storage space. The primary benefit of compressing raster data is reduction in file size. An added benefit is greatly improved performance over a network, because the user is transferring less data from a server to an application; however, compressed data must be decompressed to display in GIS software. The result may be slower raster display in GIS software than data that is not compressed. Compressed data can also increase CPU requirements on the server or desktop. Glossary of Common Terms Raster is a spatial data model made of rows and columns of cells. Each cell contains an attribute value identifying its color and location coordinate. Geospatial raster data like satellite images and aerial photographs are typically larger on average than vector data (predominately points, lines, or polygons). Compression is the process of making a (raster) file smaller while preserving all or most of the data it contains. Imagery compression enables storage of more data (image files) on a disk than if they were uncompressed. Compression ratio is the amount or degree of reduction of an image's file size.

Jackson Department of Geography DEDICATION To My Parents ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Of my thirteen years of being a geographer, the last four years under the supervision of Prof. Duane F. Marble at The Ohio State University has been the most exciting and most memorable. His wisdom and profound academic insight showed me what geography as an extraordinarily difficult discipline should be and could be. He is always the person who stands very high and sees very far, exploring the most challenging frontiers of geography relentlessly. As my academic adviser, his unfailing encouragement, guidance, patience and professional courtesy have always been my inspiration to work more creatively and more enthusiastically. He leads us to a high intellectual plateau and offers us the unlimited freedom to face the challenges and to pursue academic excellence.

  • Image Formats
    Image Formats Ioannis Rekleitis Many different file formats • JPEG/JFIF • Exif • JPEG 2000 • BMP • GIF • WebP • PNG • HDR raster formats • TIFF • HEIF • PPM, PGM, PBM, • BAT and PNM • BPG CSCE 590: Introduction to Image Processing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_formats 2 Many different file formats • JPEG/JFIF (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a lossy compression method; JPEG- compressed images are usually stored in the JFIF (JPEG File Interchange Format) >ile format. The JPEG/JFIF >ilename extension is JPG or JPEG. Nearly every digital camera can save images in the JPEG/JFIF format, which supports eight-bit grayscale images and 24-bit color images (eight bits each for red, green, and blue). JPEG applies lossy compression to images, which can result in a signi>icant reduction of the >ile size. Applications can determine the degree of compression to apply, and the amount of compression affects the visual quality of the result. When not too great, the compression does not noticeably affect or detract from the image's quality, but JPEG iles suffer generational degradation when repeatedly edited and saved. (JPEG also provides lossless image storage, but the lossless version is not widely supported.) • JPEG 2000 is a compression standard enabling both lossless and lossy storage. The compression methods used are different from the ones in standard JFIF/JPEG; they improve quality and compression ratios, but also require more computational power to process. JPEG 2000 also adds features that are missing in JPEG. It is not nearly as common as JPEG, but it is used currently in professional movie editing and distribution (some digital cinemas, for example, use JPEG 2000 for individual movie frames).
