Abstract

A classification algorithm in the discrete cosine transform (DCT) domain for the classified vector quantization (CVQ) technique is proposed. The classifier employs four DCT coefficients of 4*4 subblock as edge-oriented features. The classifier is designed using a cluster-seeking algorithm to ensure that the centroid of a set of vectors in a class always belong to that class. Since the classification is performed in the DCT domain, this approach can be easily extended to the DCT transform coding technique. Simulation results show that a good visual quality of the coded image at fixed rates in the 0.625-0.813 b/pixel (bpp) range is obtained with comparable complexity. The weighted MSE (WMSE) analysis in conjunction with the proposed classifier is discussed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
