M. Das, IMPROVED LOSSLESS IMAGE CODER BASED ON SUBOPTIMAL, ADAPTIVE MULTIPLICATIVE AUTOREGRESSIVE MODELS, Electronics Letters, 34(21), 1998, pp. 2019-2021
An improved lossless image coder is introduced which is based on subop
timal, adaptive multiplicative autoregressive models. Basically the im
provements result from the incorporation of three new elements: a back
ward block-by-block parameter estimator, a probability model for the r
esiduals, and a contextual entropy coder. The results of a comparative
experimental study indicate that on average the improved coder delive
rs similar to 7% higher compression than the old scheme.
