As the number of application of images on the Internet increases, how to store and transmit these images becomes a big challenge. JPEG as the most widely used image compression format on the Internet is often applied to pictures compression. However, just using JPEG alone to compress images is not enough now. In hence, some methods use improved entropy coding to further recompress JPEG images losslessly or process the images on DCT domain for lossy recompression. These methods are useful and work for various images. But there is no special design for fixed surveillance applications. Depending on the feature of images generated by a same fixed surveillance camera, a JPEG image lossless recompression method based on CABAC pre-coding, residual coefficients between JPEG image group and simplified context prediction is proposed by us. With a little reduction of decoding time as well as little increase of encoding time, average 27% bits saving can be achieved in the experiment.
