Abstract

Coding methods are presented for the three-component image analysis-synthesis system. The three components contain lowpass, edge, and texture information. The edge component is coded using a parameterized model, while the low-pass and texture components are jointly coded using subband coding with frequency-weighted bit allocation. Coding simulation results show how misleading objective measures can be, particularly regarding edge distortions such as blurriness and ringing. By maintaining edge fidelity, the three-component coder outperforms the JPEG and subband coders at very low bit rates.
