A DCT Approximation for Image Compression

TL;DR: An orthogonal approximation for the 8-point discrete cosine transform (DCT) is introduced, and could outperform state-of-the-art algorithms in low and high image compression scenarios, exhibiting at the same time a comparable computational complexity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypothesis Testing in Speckled Data With Stochastic Distances

TL;DR: This paper derives and compares eight stochastic distances and assesses the performance of hypothesis tests that employ them and maximum likelihood estimation, concluding that tests based on the triangular distance have the closest empirical size to the theoretical one, while thosebased on the arithmetic-geometric distances have the best power.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved 8-Point Approximate DCT for Image and Video Compression Requiring Only 14 Additions

TL;DR: A novel 8-point DCT approximation that requires only 14 addition operations and no multiplications is introduced and is compared to state-of-the-art DCT approximations in terms of both algorithm complexity and peak signal-to-noise ratio.

DCT-like transform for image compression requires 14 additions only

TL;DR: In this article, a low-complexity 8-point orthogonal approximate discrete cosine transform (DCT) is introduced. But the proposed transform requires no multiplications or bit-shift operations.
