Coding Artifact Reduction for Block-based Image Compression
Young-Cheul Wee · Journal of the Institute of Electronics Engineers of Korea · 2011
In this paper, we propose a new post-processing technique that removes blocking and ringing artifacts in Block discrete cosine transformation (BDCT)-coded images using bilateral filtering. The selection of filter parameters is a key issue in the application of a bilateral filter because it significantly affects the result. An efficient method of selecting the bilateral filter parameters is presented. The experimental results show that the proposed approach alleviates the artifacts efficiently in terms of PSNR, MSDS, and SSIM.
