Abstract
With the increasing use of multimedia technologies, image compression requires
higher performance as well as new functionality. This leads to the emerge of a
new image compression standard, JPEG-2000.
This project seeks to investigate the compression technique of JPEG-2000 standard.
The project scope can be categorised into three areas, understanding of major
functional blocks of JPEG-2000, setting up an simulation software in C/C++
programming language and investigate the algorithm's performance and computational
complexity of the standard.
The major functional blocks of JPEG-2000, such as discrete wavelet transform
(DWT) and embedded block coding with optimised truncation (EBCOT), are
particularly focused.
The simulation software which consists of a Windows Bitmap and JPEG-2000
codestream transcoder is developed with additional function program to identify
computational intensive blocks in the transcoder. A graphical user interface
(GUI) is also incorporated to simplified transcoder usage.
The execution time for compression and decompression of each functional block
is investigated. A compatibility test is also carried out between the developed
software and other software packages available in the market. In addition, JPEG-
2000 and JPEG computational complexity and image quality are compared.
