Entropy Encoding in Wavelet Image Compression
Myung-Sin Song · Birkhäuser Boston eBooks · 2008
Entropy encoding is a method of lossless compression that is performed on an image after the quantization stage. It enables one to represent an image in a more efficient way with less memory needed for storage or transmission. In this chapter, we will explore various schemes of entropy encoding and how they work mathematically where applicable. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
