A modified fuzzy adaptive resonance theory neural network (ART) is used as a classifier for a texture recognition system. The system consists of a wavelet based low level feature detector and a high level ART classifier. The performance improvement is measured in terms of identification accuracy and computational burden.

A new method of texture classification comprising two processing stages, namely a low-level evolutionary feature extraction based on Gabor wavelets and a high-level neural network based pattern recognition, is proposed. The design of these stages is motivated by the processes involved in the human visual system: low-level receptors responsible for early vision processing and the high-level cognition. Gabor wavelets are used as extractors of ‘‘lowlevel’’ features that feed the feature-adaptive adaptive resonance theory (ART) neural network acting as a high-level ‘‘cognitive system.’’ The novelty of the model developed in this paper lies in the use of a self-organizing input layer …

Index Compressed Image Adaptive Vector Quantisation, Jamshid Shanbehzadeh, Philip Ogunbona

This paper introduces an improved image adaptive vector quantisation technique - index compressed image adaptive vector quantisation (IC-IAVQ). Despite its advantage over the universal codebook VQ, basic image adaptive VQ (IAVQ) is still suboptimum; it neglects the correlation among block indices in the encoded image. The new technique, IC-IAVQ, overcomes this suboptimality through a pre-processing and lossless compression of block indices. Simulation results using several images show that IC-IAVQ outperforms IAVQ and entropy coded IAVQ, especially at low bit-rates by about 2dB on average.

It is difficult to achieve a good low bit rate image compression performance with traditional block coding schemes such as transform coding and vector quantization, without regard for the human visual perception or signal dependency. These classical block coding schemes are based on minimizing the MSE at a certain rate. This procedure results in more bits being allocated to areas which may not be visually important and the resulting quantization noise manifests as a blocking artifact. Blocking artifacts are known to be psychologically more annoying than white noise when the human visual response is considered. While image adaptive vector quantization …

Recent developments in the Internet and Web based technologies require faster communication of multimedia data in a secure form. Standard compression algorithms such arithmetic coding schemes, and propose methods of protecting against these attacks. In the next section we review DHC, and in Section 3 describe DHC encryption scheme and examine possible attacks. In Section 4, we propose an encryption scheme that protects against the attacks and in Section 5 give the results of our experiments. Section 6, concludes the paper. as JPEG and MPEG use an entropy coding stage. By incorporating security in this stage it it possible to …

Shape Vq-Based Adaptive Predictive Lossless Image Coder, Jiazhao Wang, Philip Ogunbona, Golshah Naghdy

A new shape adaptive predictive lossless image coder is proposed. Three classes of block shapes are delineated with associated “optimum” predctors. Each image is partitioned into sub-blocks that are classified into one of the three classes using vector quantisation. The encoder then employs the predictor corresponding to the class of the block under consideration. Performance evaluation of the proposed coder in comparison with four other lossless coders includmg lossless JPEG indicates its superiority.
