The rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and the emergence of the metaverse have transformed various fields of research, offering unprecedented opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and exploration. These technologies have enabled researchers to simulate complex phenomena, analyze large datasets with precision, and create immersive environments for experimental studies. As AI algorithms continue to evolve and the metaverse becomes more accessible, the scientific community is poised to leverage these tools to push the boundaries of traditional research methodologies. However, this paradigm shift also introduces new challenges, including ethical concerns, data security, an...
This book explains the stages necessary to create a wavelet compression system for images and describes state-of-the-art systems used in image compression standards and current research. It starts with a high level discussion of the properties of the wavelet transform, especially the decomposition into multi-resolution subbands. It continues with an exposition of the null-zone, uniform quantization used in most subband coding systems and the optimal allocation of bitrate to the different subbands. Then the image compression systems of the FBI Fingerprint Compression Standard and the JPEG2000 Standard are described in detail. Following that, the set partitioning coders SPECK and SPIHT, and EZ...
