Transformée en cosinus discrèteLa transformée en cosinus discrète ou TCD (de l'anglais : DCT ou Discrete Cosine Transform) est une transformation proche de la transformée de Fourier discrète (DFT). Le noyau de projection est un cosinus et crée donc des coefficients réels, contrairement à la DFT, dont le noyau est une exponentielle complexe et qui crée donc des coefficients complexes. On peut cependant exprimer la DCT en fonction de la DFT, qui est alors appliquée sur le signal symétrisé.
Video coding formatA video coding format (or sometimes video compression format) is a content representation format for storage or transmission of digital video content (such as in a data file or bitstream). It typically uses a standardized video compression algorithm, most commonly based on discrete cosine transform (DCT) coding and motion compensation. A specific software, firmware, or hardware implementation capable of compression or decompression to/from a specific video coding format is called a video codec.
Quantification vectorielleLa quantification vectorielle est une technique de quantification souvent utilisée dans la compression de données avec pertes de données (Lossy Data Compression) pour laquelle l'idée de base est de coder ou de remplacer par une clé des valeurs d'un espace vectoriel multidimensionnel vers des valeurs d'un sous-espace discret de plus petite dimension. Le vecteur de plus petit espace nécessite moins d'espace de stockage et les données sont donc compressées.
Compression artifactA compression artifact (or artefact) is a noticeable distortion of media (including , audio, and video) caused by the application of lossy compression. Lossy data compression involves discarding some of the media's data so that it becomes small enough to be stored within the desired or transmitted (streamed) within the available bandwidth (known as the data rate or bit rate). If the compressor cannot store enough data in the compressed version, the result is a loss of quality, or introduction of artifacts.
Modified discrete cosine transformThe modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT) is a transform based on the type-IV discrete cosine transform (DCT-IV), with the additional property of being lapped: it is designed to be performed on consecutive blocks of a larger dataset, where subsequent blocks are overlapped so that the last half of one block coincides with the first half of the next block. This overlapping, in addition to the energy-compaction qualities of the DCT, makes the MDCT especially attractive for signal compression applications, since it helps to avoid artifacts stemming from the block boundaries.
Audio coding formatAn audio coding format (or sometimes audio compression format) is a content representation format for storage or transmission of digital audio (such as in digital television, digital radio and in audio and video files). Examples of audio coding formats include MP3, AAC, Vorbis, FLAC, and Opus. A specific software or hardware implementation capable of audio compression and decompression to/from a specific audio coding format is called an audio codec; an example of an audio codec is LAME, which is one of several different codecs which implements encoding and decoding audio in the MP3 audio coding format in software.
Advanced Audio CodingAdvanced Audio Coding (AAC, « encodage audio avancé ») est un algorithme de compression audio avec perte de données ayant pour but d’offrir un meilleur rapport qualité sur débit binaire que le format plus ancien MPEG-1/2 Audio Layer 3, plus connu sous le nom de MP3. Pour ces qualités, il est choisi par différentes entreprises dont Apple ou RealNetworks. La RNT (Radio numérique terrestre utilise le système de radio diffusion DAB+ (version améliorée du DAB, Digital Audio Broadcasting) qui intègre une version avancée du codec AAC : HE-AAC version 2, aussi appelé eAAC+, et défini dans la norme MPEG-4 Part 3.
Wavelet transformIn mathematics, a wavelet series is a representation of a square-integrable (real- or complex-valued) function by a certain orthonormal series generated by a wavelet. This article provides a formal, mathematical definition of an orthonormal wavelet and of the integral wavelet transform. A function is called an orthonormal wavelet if it can be used to define a Hilbert basis, that is a complete orthonormal system, for the Hilbert space of square integrable functions.
Motion compensationMotion compensation in computing, is an algorithmic technique used to predict a frame in a video, given the previous and/or future frames by accounting for motion of the camera and/or objects in the video. It is employed in the encoding of video data for video compression, for example in the generation of MPEG-2 files. Motion compensation describes a picture in terms of the transformation of a reference picture to the current picture. The reference picture may be previous in time or even from the future.
Video Coding Experts GroupThe Video Coding Experts Group or Visual Coding Experts Group (VCEG, also known as Question 6) is a working group of the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) concerned with standards for compression coding of video, images, audio, and other signals. It is responsible for standardization of the "H.26x" line of video coding standards, the "T.8xx" line of image coding standards, and related technologies.
