Multiple Description Image Codingwith Prediction Compensation
Guoqian Sun, Upul Samarawickrama, Jie Liang, Chengjie Tu, Trac Duy Tran · 2007
A new multiple description image coding paradigm is presented in this paper by combining the lapped transform, block level source splitting, inter-description prediction, and coding of the prediction residual. Jointly optimal designs of all system components are discussed. Compared with the best multiple description image coding algorithm in the literature, the new method can achieve significant improvement when one description is lost, given the same bit rate and the same central distortion.
