嵌入式零树小波编码及其改进算法的研究

(

Abstract  With the extensive application of internet and image,some new requirements on image coding,such as high compression rate ,pregressive codec,and compression from lossy to lossless ,are to be satisfied.These functions can be performed well by EZW(Embedded Zerotree Wavelets) coding.On the bases of EZW,many newly improved algorithms have been developed in recent years.They can illustrated by algorithms like SPIHT(Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees),SPECK(Set Partitioned Embedded block coder),In this paper,the writer discusses the principles and performances of these algorithms,thus explains the research tendency in the area of embedded image coding.
