1. Introduction • JPEG[1] has played an important role in image storage and transmission since its development. • JPEG provides very good quality of reconstructed images at low or medium compression but it suffers from blocking artifacts at high compression. • Several papers [2]~[7] have been published to improve the performance of DCT-based image compression. • In his website[8], Bilsen provides an experimental still image compression system known as Advanced Image Coding (AIC) that performs much better than JPEG and close to JPEG-2000[10].
2. JPEG-Baseline (a) Encoder (b) Decoder
3. JPEG 2000 • Based on wavelet transform • Context Coding Algorithm: EBCOT (Embedded Block Coding with Optimal Truncation) • Context-based Arithmetic Entropy Coding • This simulation disables tiling and scalable mode • Reference software[10]: JasPer v 1.900.1
4. Advanced Image Coding (a) Encoder [8] (b) Decoder [8]
Advanced Image Coding It is a still image compression system which is a combination of H.264 and JPEG standards. Features: • No sub-sampling- higher quality / compression ratios • 9 prediction modes as in H.264 • Predicted blocks are predicted from previously decoded blocks • Uses DCT to transform 8x8 residual block instead of transform coefficients as in JPEG • Employs uniform quantization • Uses floating point algorithm • Coefficients encoded in scan-line order • Makes use of CABAC similar to H.264 with several contexts

Prediction Modes[8] Mode 0: Vertical Mode 1: Horizontal Mode 2: DC Mode 3: Diagonal Down-Left Mode 4: Diagonal Down-Right Mode 5: Vertical-Right Mode 6: Horizontal-Down Mode 7: Vertical-Left Mode 8: Horizontal-Up
Prediction Modes (contd.) • Determine only when coding each Y block • By full search among the 9 modes • minimize the prediction error with Sum of Absolute Difference • The selected prediction mode is stored & used for blocks in Y, Cb and Cr. • ModeEnc encodes selected prediction modes with a variable length algorithm.
Encode the prediction residual • The prediction residual (Res) is transformed into DCT coefficients with floating point DCT. • DCT coefficients are uniformly scalar-quantized: same QP for all the DCT coefficients of Y, Cb and Cr. • zig-zag scan • Encode 64 coefficients of a block with the same algorithm for the AC coefficients in JPEG[1][9]. • Use the Huffman table for AC coefficients of chrominances recommended in baseline JPEG [1][9].
File Format • stream header : 11 bytes (format flag, version, QP, image width, image height, pixel depth, code size of the compressed modes). • stream order: header, code of prediction modes, Huffman codes of Y-Res, Cb-Res and Cr-Res. • An adaptive arithmetic coder [12][13]: input byte-by-byte from the compressed stream; output finally compressed result.

Original and compressed Lena image with different methods • Original Lena • (51251224) (b) AIC: 0.22bpp, PSNR=28.84dB (c) JPEG2000: 0.22bpp, PSNR=29.57dB
Compressed Lena image with different methods(contd.) (d) M-AIC: 0.22bpp, PSNR=29.02dB (e) JPEG: 0.22bpp, PSNR=24.29dB
Compressed Lena image with different methods(contd.) (f) AIC: 0.15bpp, PSNR=27.29dB (g) M-AIC: 0.15bpp, PSNR=27.43dB (h) JPEG: 0.16bpp, PSNR=14.05dB
Conclusions and Future Work • M-AIC performs much better than baseline JPEG, close to AIC and JPEG-2000, and a little bit better than AIC at some low bit rate range. • Replace the Huffman coder and AAC with CABAC • Replace floating point DCT with integer DCT • Try more prediction modes
