Why JPEG 2000?
To improve quality-performance ratio: Low bit-rate compression (<0.25 bpp) Lossy and lossless compression (both high performace) Computer graphics, bi-level and raster images Transmission in noise channels Random access to data and progressive transmission Open architecture (different application can be
optimized)
Low-rate transmission rate
0.125bpp (192:1) 0.25bpp (96:1) 0.5bpp (48:1)

Applications
Internet Cellular phone imaging Printers and scanners Digital photography Medical imaging Digital libraries E-commerce Facsimile transmission
JPEG 2000: a big standard Core standard was proposed to finish in Dec
2000. It replaces JPEG standard (ISO 10918) It has been proposed 12 parts
Part 1 is the core standard Part 2 is extensions to the core system Part 3 is motion Jpeg 2000 Parts 4-5 are conformance and reference software Parts 6 and 12 are File Format issues Parts 8-11 are applied extensions

Discrete Wavelet Transform
Multirresolution image representation: DWT. The full-frame nature of the transform decorrelates the image across
a larger scale and eliminates blocking artifacts at high compression. Use of integer DWT filters allows for both lossless and lossy
compression within a single compressed bit-stream. DWT provides a frequency band decomposition of the image where
each subband can be quantized according to its visual importance. Two filters in Part 1: irreversible Daubechies (9,7) and reversible
(5,3) Part 2 allows arbitrary filters
2-D Wavelet Decomposition
•Most wavelet based image compression systems use a class of analysis/synthesis filters known as bi-orthogonal filters:
•– The basis functions of h0(n) and g1(n) are orthogonal as the basis functions for h1(n) and g0(n) are orthogonal.•– Linear-phase (symmetrical) and perfect reconstruction.•– Unequal length; odd-length filters differ by an odd multiple of two (e.g., 7/9), while even-length filters differ by an even multiple of two (e.g., 6/10).•– Symmetric boundary extension.
Quantization
Uniform quantization with deadzone is used to quantize all the wavelet coefficients.
For each subband b, a basic quantizer step size b is selected by the user and is used to quantize all the coefficients in that subband.
The choice of the quantizer step size for each subband can be based on visual models, such as the contrast sensitivity function (CSF). This gives higher compression ratio for same visual quality.
Quantization
Where: y is the input to the quantizer, b is the quantizer step size, q is the resulting quantizer index.
Dequantization
Where: z is the reconstructed signal value r is the reconstruction bias
R = 0.5 -> midpoint reconstruction (no bias) R < 0.5 reconstruction is biased to zero (typical is r=3/8) In JPEG 2000 (Part 1), parameter r is arbitrarily selected by
the decoder
Quantization Unlike JPEG Baseline, where the resulting quantizer
index q is encoded as a single symbol, in JPEG2000 it is encoded one bit at a time, starting from the MSB and proceeding to the LSB.
During this progressive encoding, the quantized wavelet coefficient is called insignificant if the quantizer index q is still zero. Once the first nonzero bit is encoded, the coefficient becomes significant and its sign is encoded.
If the p least significant bits of the quantizer index still remain to be encoded, the reconstructed sample at that stage is identical to the one obtained by using a USQ with deadzone with a step size of b 2p
Bit-plane coding quantization
Bit-plane coding quantization example Wavelet coefficient: 83. Quantizer step size: 3
Quantizer index: 83/3=27 (00011011)
Dequantized value full: (27+0.5) 3 = 82.5 Dequantized value 6BP:
000110=6 Step size = 3x4=12 Dequantized value = (6+0.5) 12 = 78
Dequantized value 4BP: 0001=1 Step size = 3x16=48 Dequantized value = (1+0.5) 48 = 72
Entropy coding
Context-based adaptive binary arithmetic coding is used in JPEG2000 to efficiently compress each individual bit plane.
The binary value of a sample in a block of a bit plane of a subband is coded as a binary symbol with the JBIG2 MQ-Coder.

Rate allocation Rate allocation is the process that allows to target a
specific compression ratio with the best possible quality (MSE, visual or other) for each layer and/or entire codestream. Possible types are: None: compression ratio is determined solely by the quantization
step sizes and image content. Iterative: quantization step sizes are adjusted according to
obtained compression ratio and operation is repeated. Post-compression: rate allocation is performed after the image
data has been coded, in one step. Others (Lagrangian, scan-based, etc.)
Not standardized by JPEG 2000 -> encoder choice.
ROI coding Region of Interest (ROI) coding allows a non-uniform
distribution of quality. The ROI is coded with a higher quality than the background (BG). A higher compression ratio can be achieved with same or higher quality inside ROIs.
Static ROIs are defined at encoding time and are suitable for storage, fixed transmission, remote sensing, etc. Commonly referred to as ROI coding.
Dynamic ROIs are defined interactively by a user in a client/server situation during a progressive transmission. Suitable for telemedicine, PDAs, mobile communications, etc. They can be achieved by the dynamic generation of layers matching the user’s request.
ROI coding
Error Transmission When delivering compressed images across error-prone
channels any transmission error can severely affect the decoded image quality. This is specially true since variable length coding is used in the code-block entropy coding and packet heads.
Error types can be random errors, burst error and missing bytes (i.e. network packet loss).
Since each code-block is independently coded an error in a code-block’s bitstream will be contained within that code-block. Nevertheless severe distortion can occur in the case of an error.
Packet heads are interdependent and thus fragile.

JP2 file format JP2 is the optional JPEG 2000 file format to encapsulate
JPEG 2000 codestreams. Extension: jp2 Allows to embed XML information (e.g., metadata) Alpha channel (e.g., transparency) Accurate color interpretation “True color” and “palette color” supported Intellectual property information Capture and default display resolution File “magic number” File transfer errors (ASCII ftp, 7 bit e-mail, etc.)
