Efficient Lossless to Lossy Transcoding of JPEG 2000 Codestreams for D-Cinema

TLDR
Experimental results show dramatically reduced computational complexity while the subjective image quality closely approximates that of full lossless decoding.
Abstract
This paper presents a method of lossless to lossy transcoding of images that takes advantage of bitplane coding in JPEG 2000. Decoding JPEG 2000 lossless codestreams and subsequently re-encoding them into JPEG 2000 lossy streams consumes lots of computational time. To reduce this time, partial decoding of the lossless codestream is proposed. In addition, by employing a unique rate control, the image quality degradation usually associated with partial decoding is reduced. Experimental results show dramatically reduced computational complexity while the subjective image quality closely approximates that of full lossless decoding.

Fast rate allocation schemes for JPEG2000

TL;DR: Two schemes are proposed to reduce computation and memory for the real-time rate allocation in JPEG2000 and a simplification scheme is used to facilitate calculation of the rate-distortion slopes based on some approximate treatments by means of logarithm expression.
