JPEG Privacy and Security framework for social networking and GLAM services

Touradj Ebrahimi

Current image coding standards provide limited support for privacy and security features. An exception is the JPSEC standard, which defines security extensions in JPEG 2000 specifications (part 8). Notwithstanding this shortcoming, the JPEG committee is cu ...

Geometry-driven quantization for omnidirectional image coding

Pascal Frossard, Francesca De Simone

In this paper we propose a method to adapt the quantization tables of typical block-based transform codecs when the input to the encoder is a panoramic image resulting from equirectangular projection of a spherical image. When the visual content is project ...

JPEG XT: A Compression Standard for HDR and WCG Images [Standards in a Nutshell]

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart

High bit depth data acquisition and manipulation have been largely studied at the academic level over the last 15 years and are rapidly attracting interest at the industrial level. An example of the increasing interest for high-dynamic range (HDR) imaging ...

JPEG backward compatible coding of omnidirectional images

Touradj Ebrahimi, Evgeniy Upenik, Martin Rerabek

Omnidirectional image and video, also known as 360 image and 360 video, are gaining in popularity with the recent growth in availability of cameras and displays that can cope with such type of content. As omnidirectional visual content represents a larger ...

Towards an animated JPEG

Touradj Ebrahimi, Lin Yuan, David Mc Nally, Joël Régis Theytaz

Recently, short animated image sequences have become very popular in social networks. Most animated images are represented in GIF format. In this paper we propose an animated JPEG format, called aJPEG, which allows the standard JPEG format to be extended i ...

Approaching the Rate-Distortion Limit With Spatial Coupling, Belief Propagation, and Decimation

Nicolas Macris, Vahid Aref, Marc Vuffray

We investigate an encoding scheme for lossy compression of a binary symmetric source based on simple spatially coupled low-density generator-matrix codes. The degree of the check nodes is regular and the one of code-bits is Poisson distributed with an aver ...

Rate-Distortion Evaluation for Two-Layer Coding Systems

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart

The Bjontegaard model is widely used to calculate the compression efficiency between different codecs. However, this model is not sufficient to investigate the impact on quality of the interaction of the base and enhancement layer bit rates when comparing ...

Overview and Evaluation of the JPEG XT HDR Image Compression Standard

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart

Standards play an important role in providing a common set of specifications and allowing inter-operability between devices and systems. Until recently, no standard for High Dynamic Range (HDR) image coding had been adopted by the market, and HDR imaging r ...

Image coding with incomplete transforms competition for HEVC

Anne-Flore Nicole Marie Perrin

Overcomplete transforms have received considerable attention over the past years. However, they often suffer from a complexity burden. In this paper, a low complexity approach is provided, where an orthonormal basis is complemented with a set of incomplete ...

The JPEG XT Suite of Standards: Status and Future Plans

Touradj Ebrahimi

The JPEG standard has known an enormous market adoption. Daily, billions of pictures are created, stored and exchanged in this format. The JPEG committee acknowledges this success and spends continued efforts in maintaining and expanding the standard speci ...
