Image Coding Based on Optimal Bit Allocation
Gang Xu · 1998
In this paper, the authors propose a new bit allocation algorithm, capable of efficiently allocating a given quota of bit to an arbitrary set of different quantizers. This algorithm produces an optimal or very nearly optimal allocation, while allowing the set of admissible bit allocation values to be constrained to non negative integers. It is particularly efficiency to image coding based on wavelet for using this algorithm.
