An optimal transform tree coding method applied to images
P. Jakatdar,William A. Pearlman +1 more
TL;DR: A suboptimal discrete cosine transform is used to encode image sub-blocks and a selective search through the code tree using a transform tree coding technique that is theoretically optimal for Gaussian sources and the squared error criterion at all nonzero rates.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Multirate image sequence coding with quadtree segmentation and backward motion compensation
Ligang Lu,William A. Pearlman +1 more
TL;DR: A new image sequence coding scheme which employs backward motion compensation, quadtree segmentation, and pruned tree-structured vector quantization, which indicates that the proposed scheme is suitable for low rate video applications.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A Robust Method For Restoration Of Photon-Limited, Blurred Images
William A. Pearlman,Woo-Jin Song +1 more
TL;DR: Pearman and Song as mentioned in this paper proposed a robust method for restoring low light level images degraded by alinear space-invariant blur using a constrained linear least squares technique where the error of the first step is treated as additive noise.
Resolution scalable and random access decodable image coding with low time complexity
TL;DR: A resolution scalable and random accessible image coding algorithm, PROGRES (Progressive Resolution Decompression), is designed based on predictive dynamic range coding of wavelet coefficients and without bit-plane coding, to explain the superior coding efficiency of SPIHT through its ability to code higher order zerotrees than EZW.

Motion differential set partition coding for color image sequence compression
William A. Pearlman,Yang Hu +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a processor performs a wavelet transform on the first frame, initializes a significant points list and a list of insignificant sets, searches all of the at least three components to identify a most significant bit in the firstframe, and creates a consolidated significance map with all the color components by searching the individual spatial tree for each component.
