摘要
An adaptive image coding method and system are disclosed. The system accepts an input image, divides it into image segments, and assigns each segment to a wavelet transform filter from a bank of such filters for transformation. The bank preferably comprises filters adapted for different types of image content, e.g., sharp edges, slowly-varying contours, etc. Filters are preferably assigned so as to produce minimal distortion for their assigned image segments at a given target bit rate. ;Each filter produces transform coefficients for its segment using scale and subband settings common to the entire image. The valid coefficients for each segment are then combined in a composite wavelet coefficient image, which resembles a single wavelet transform of an entire image—although different filters are used to create different portions of the coefficient image. The composite image allows joint, rate-distortion optimized coding for a segmented image. Joint coding allocates bits between the transforms of the image segments optimally, and produces an easily scaleable bitstream.
