Image Compression Based On Genealogical Relation Of The Tsvq Indices, Jamshid Shanbehzadeh, Philip Ogunbona, Abdoihosein Sarafzadeh Sep 2012

Image Compression Based On Genealogical Relation Of The Tsvq Indices, Jamshid Shanbehzadeh, Philip Ogunbona, Abdoihosein Sarafzadeh

Professor Philip Ogunbona

The indices obtained by tree-structured vector quantisation (TSVQ) have an interesting property that enables them to give information about the correlation between two image blocks. Iftwo image blocks are highly correlated, they may have an identical index, or the same ancestors. The existence of high inter-block correlation in natural images results in having neighboring blocks with the same genealogy. This characteristic can be used to compress the indices. This paper introduces a novel method to exploit the genealogical relation between the image block indices obtained from a TSVQ. The performance of this scheme in terms of PSNR versus average rate …


Securing Wavelet Compression With Random Permutations, Takeyuki Uehara, Reihaneh Safavi-Naini, Philip Ogunbona Sep 2012

Securing Wavelet Compression With Random Permutations, Takeyuki Uehara, Reihaneh Safavi-Naini, Philip Ogunbona

Wavelet compression for digital images achieves very high compression with reasonably high image quality and so is widely used in various applications. Adding security to compression algorithms has been proposed in a number of compression systems with the aim reducing the overall cost of compression and encryption. In this paper we propose a combined compression and encryption system based on wavelet transform and examine its security. Our results show that with a relatively small added cost varying degrees of security can be obtained while maintaining the performance of the compression system.


Secure Compression Using Adaptive Huffman Coding, C. Kailasananathan, Reihaneh Safavi-Naini, Philip Ogunbona Sep 2012

Secure Compression Using Adaptive Huffman Coding, C. Kailasananathan, Reihaneh Safavi-Naini, Philip Ogunbona

Professor Philip Ogunbona

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 …
