Title
Arithmetic coding for image compression with adaptive weight-context classification
Abstract
In this paper, a new binary arithmetic coding strategy with adaptive-weight context classification is introduced to solve the context dilution and context quantization problems for bitplane coding. In our method, the weight, obtained using a regressive-prediction algorithm, represents the degree of importance of the current coefficient/block in the wavelet transform domain. Regarding the weights as contexts, the coder reduces the context number by classifying the weights using the Lloyd-Max algorithm, such that high-order is approximated as low-order context arithmetic coding. The experimental results show that our method effectively improves the arithmetic coding performance and outperforms the compression performances of SPECK, SPIHT and JPEG2000.
