Perancangan Aplikasi Kompresi File Video Menggunakan Algritma SPIHT (Set Partioning In Hirarcical Tress)

Video files have a large enough capacity, and to access them takes a long time, so a data compression technique is needed. In this case the video file will be compressed using the SPIHT (Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees) algorithm, SPIHT (Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees) is a video file compression capable of achieving a high compression ratio. Problems that arise due to the large file size include the wasteful storage media used, as well as more time in terms of data exchange, data transfer over the internet is a big problem in Indonesia because of the very low download and upload speeds. To overcome this problem, data compression techniques are needed. The concept of compression was born as a real solution to problems regarding the space needed to store various digital files, including the MKV (Matroska Video) format video files. The compression technique is a technique that compresses files so that they become smaller in size while maintaining the quality of the representation of the file. Through the compression process of MKV (Matroska video) format video files using the SPIHT (Set Partioning In Hirarcical Tress) algorithm, it is hoped that in the future this compression system will have a major effect on video file storage and can increase storage and it is also hoped that this algorithm can be used for other objects to be compressed.

WITHDRAWN: A new lossless compression method using Direction Adaptive-Discrete wavelet transform and Modified SPIHT coding

In programmable hardware, the most commonly used Image Compression technique is the Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT). Based on the Discrete Wavelet Transformation (DWT) architecture the correlation is deployed in the midst position of the image pixels in the lifting. In addition to that, the wavelet coefficient is provided by the storage elements in which the requirement of the pixels remains the same. Encryption of the wavelet coefficients are offered with lieu of a Modified SPIHT algorithm. The wavelet coefficient is simplified by dint of the scanning process with a custom of 1-D addressing method as an alternative of the innovative 2-D arrangement for the wavelet coefficients. A static memory data lists are shared out in the lieu of the substitute by means of the dynamic allocation prerequisite in the innovative SPIHT. The proposed algorithm has been exemplified mutually the 2-Dimage and a 3-D MRI data set and is set up to achieve appreciable compression with a high peak-signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) values.

RL-SPIHT: Reinforcement Learning-Based Adaptive Selection of Compression Ratios for 1-D SPIHT Algorithm

In recent years, deep learning technologies have been actively used in various applications. In particular, networks trained using reinforcement learning (RL) are widely exploited for auxiliary tasks in various multimedia frameworks, including image restoration, image compression, and computer vision. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) are the representative lightweight compression methods that are most widely used for the purposes of frame memory compression and LCD overdrive. In precedent research, in order to improve the compression efficiency of DWT-SPIHT algorithms, the relative complexity of DWT coefficients is quantified, and when compressing DWT coefficients with the SPIHT algorithm, the compression ratio (CR) is adaptively allocated to the compression block according to the numerically expressed complexity. However, the SPIHT algorithm has the characteristic of resource limitation, resulting in the occurrence of remaining blocks, which cannot take advantage of allocating the adaptive CR. Moreover, since the equation expressing the block complexity that determines the CR of each block is obtained through machine learning-based linear regression, it lacks the capability to deal with a wide range of real-world images. To compensate for these drawbacks, this paper optimizes the compression efficiency of the 1-D DWT-SPIHT algorithm using the RL-based episodic auxiliary task. In detail, the proposed method optimally adjusts the proportion of CRs, which are adaptively selected for each block according to the DWT coefficient, through the episodic model trained with the RL algorithm. Consequently, the proposed method achieves an average improvement in peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of 2.18dB compared to the baseline 1-D DWT-SPIHT with the fixed compression ratio and 0.68dB compared to the precedent research.

Novel method of data compression for the online detection signal of coal mine wire rope

Coal mine wire rope detection is related to personnel and production safety. With the Chinese coal mining trend tending towards deep mining, a considerable amount of data is critical for the online detection of deep well lifting wire rope. To improve the sampling rate, decrease the analysis processing time and realise real-time online detection, this paper proposes an online detection data compression processing method. The study focuses on the distortion compression method for the online detection signal of deep well hoisting wire rope. The set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) algorithm is one of the most advanced methods in the field of image transformation coding. Compared with other coding algorithms, the SPIHT algorithm demonstrates desired characteristics such as a high signal-to-noise ratio, lower complexity and decreased computational load, among others. This paper discusses how, in combination with the image processing method, a compression coding method for the one-dimensional signal of the magnetic leakage detection of the mining wire rope is developed. Furthermore, the set partitioning sorting algorithm is investigated and analysed, the temporal orientation tree structure of the one-dimensional signal of the wavelet coefficient is defined for wire rope magnetic leakage detection and the SPIHT algorithm is presented, in addition to an example of the one-dimensional signal from the magnetic leakage detection of the wire rope. The results reveal that under the condition of the normalised mean square error (NMSE; NMSE < 0.01) of distortion, the compression ratio improved by 30%. The online detection signal lossy compression method proposed in this study has a considerable influence on the recovery of the original signal, in addition to a higher compression ratio and a reduced computation time, compared to the existing method.

MRI image compression using multiple wavelets at different levels of discrete wavelets transform

Medicine is benefited in large amount with the utilization of imaging. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an important imaging modality that is used for better diagnosis. Since the number of images generated by MRI is in large number per patient, the requirement for storage space and transmission bandwidth will be larger. In the area of image processing, image compression finds an important application that reduces storage space and transmission bandwidth. One way to compress the image is by using transform based techniques. In this work, we have used DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform) with multiple wavelets at different levels to transform the MRI images. In the first few levels CDF (Cohen–Daubechies–Feauveau) 9/7 wavelet is used for transformation and Haar wavelet is used for remaining levels. After transformation SPIHT (Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees) algorithm is used for compression of the images. We have observed better compression in terms of MSE (Mean squared Error) and PSNR (Peak Signal to Noise Ratio) with the proposed method in comparison with the single wavelet transformation.

NEW SPIHT-BASED ALGORITHM FOR ELECTROCARDIOGRAM SIGNAL COMPRESSION

In this paper, we propose an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal compression algorithm that is based on wavelet and a new modified set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) algorithm. The proposed algorithm contains a preprocessing of the approximation subband before the coding step by mean removing. Three other modifications are also introduced to the SPIHT algorithm. The first one is a new initialization of the two lists of insignificant points (LIP) and insignificant sets (LIS), while the second is concerning the position of inserting new entries of type [Formula: see text] at the LIS, and in the last one, the redundancy in checking type [Formula: see text] entries in the original method was found and avoided. The new proposed coding algorithm is applied to ECG signal compression and the obtained numerical results on the MIT-BIH database show the efficient performances of the proposed SPIHT algorithm over the original method and other existing methods.

Enhanced SPIHT Algorithm with Pipelined Datapath Architecture Design

DOI : 10.26650/electrica.2018.15101 Set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) is an efficient algorithm which is used for the image compression widely. SPIHT operates sequentially so, its parallel implementation is difficult. In this study, the SPIHT algorithm is improved for providing that it is suitable for the parallel processing applications, and the corresponding pipelined datapath is designed for the proposed enhanced SPIHT algorithm. The datapath is designed to have three stages as preprocessing, list generation and output stream. In the preprocessing stage, the flags which are supports the list generation stage are constituted. List of insignificant sets (LIS), list of insignificant pixels (LIP) and list of significant pixels (LSP) are formed in list generation stage. These lists contain the bit values which generate the output bit stream. The performance of the improved datapath design has been tested by compressing different images, and the obtained results are given. Cite this article as: Cekli S, Akman A.

Medical Video Coding Based on 2nd-Generation Wavelets: Performance Evaluation

The operations of digitization, transmission and storage of medical data, particularly images, require increasingly effective encoding methods not only in terms of compression ratio and flow of information but also in terms of visual quality. At first, there was DCT (discrete cosine transform) then DWT (discrete wavelet transform) and their associated standards in terms of coding and image compression. The 2nd-generation wavelets seeks to be positioned and confronted by the image and video coding methods currently used. It is in this context that we suggest a method combining bandelets and the SPIHT (set partitioning in hierarchical trees) algorithm. There are two main reasons for our approach: the first lies in the nature of the bandelet transform to take advantage of capturing the geometrical complexity of the image structure. The second reason is the suitability of encoding the bandelet coefficients by the SPIHT encoder. Quality measurements indicate that in some cases (for low bit rates) the performance of the proposed coding competes with the well-established ones (H.264 or MPEG4 AVC and H.265 or MPEG4 HEVC) and opens up new application prospects in the field of medical imaging.

SPIHT Algorithm With Adaptive Selection of Compression Ratio Depending on DWT Coefficients

In mobile multimedia devices, the frame memory compression (FMC) technique by embedded compression (EC) is becoming an increasingly important video-processing method for reducing the external data bandwidth requirement, which, in turn, results in power savings. Among various EC schemes, the combination of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) is widely used for FMC because it achieves high compression efficiency with low computational complexity. However, there is room for improvement in the conventional DWT and SPIHT algorithm because it compresses all blocks with the same compression ratio without taking into account the correlation between DWT coefficients and the SPIHT algorithm. This study proposes a novel one-dimensional (1-D) DWT and SPIHT algorithm, which enhances the quality of the compressed video by internally applying an adaptive compression ratio for the SPIHT algorithm based on DWT coefficients while keeping the same bit-stream size. The block complexity is predicted from the distribution of DWT coefficients. Then, simple blocks are aggressively compressed with a low compression ratio, while the complex blocks are compressed with a high ratio. Furthermore, to achieve the best video quality, each compression ratio is decided by an optimization technique based on mathematical formulation. Precisely, the logarithm of mean squared error by the SPIHT algorithm is assumed to be linearly correlated with the logarithm of processed DWT coefficients. Experimental results are provided that support the aforementioned model. Compared to the conventional 1-D DWT and SPIHT algorithm, the proposed scheme remarkably improves the video quality by an average of 2.23 dB in peak signal-to-noise ratio when the target compression ratio for the SPIHT algorithm is 5/16.

FPGA implementation of a low-power and area-efficient state-table-based compression algorithm for DSLR cameras

Small image acquisition devices like digital single lens reflex (DSLR) cameras most commonly use Joint Photographic Expects Group (JPEG) coding standard for lossy compression. Although JPEG is a simple coding standard, its compression efficiency is very low as compared to any typical state-of-the-art image coding standards like set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT). In this paper, a novel state-table-based SPIHT (STS) algorithm and its field programmable gate array (FPGA) implementation is proposed. The STS uses two small state-tables and two extremely small lists. The STS not only provides better compression efficiency than the state-of-the-art JPEG 2000 at high bit rates but also requires very small memory to hold the state-tables and lists in comparison to SPIHT. On average STS requires 0.86\% of the memory needed by SPIHT when evaluated for image sizes ranging from 4 Mpixels to 40 Mpixels. The implementation results show that STS consumes very less FPGA area in comparison to SPIHT-based architectures. The dynamic power dissipation of STS is also less than that of JPEG-like compression standards. This makes our proposed algorithm a better candidate for compression in low-power, low-memory digital image acquisition devices.

IMPROVED FINGERPRINT COMPRESSION TECHNIQUE WITH DECIMATED MULTI-WAVELET COEFFICIENTS FOR LOW BIT RATES

In this paper, a multi-wavelet transform with decimated frequency bands is proposed to be used in the Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm to improve fingerprint image compression. Either shuffled or unshuffled multi-wavelets can be used for SPIHT algorithm. In both the cases, the quality of the compressed images at lower bit rates either remained the same or slightly improved compared to wavelets. To improve the performance at lower bit rates, a method which utilizes the decimated version of multi-wavelet for the initialization of lists in SPIHT algorithm is used. The multi-wavelet used for the proposed work is SA4 (Symmetric-Antisymmetric). The algorithm was tested and verified using NIST, Shivang Patel, NITGEN and other databases. An overall improvement in performance particularly at lower bit rates (0.01 to 0.09) compared to a multi-wavelet without decimation was obtained using this method. The improvement was 0.798dB, 0.857dB and 0.859dB for the images in NITGEN database for a multi-wavelet decimated by 2, 4 and 8 respectively. Similar performances were observed for other databases. It was further observed that the PSNR was highest when the multi-wavelet was decimated by a factor of 4.

A Low-Cost Hardware Design of a 1-D SPIHT Algorithm for Video Display Systems

This paper presents low-cost compressors for video display systems, which compress video data to reduce the size of the frame memory in a display panel in a television or a smartphone. The hardware solution exploits the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and 1-D set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) to support the raster-scan processing order in a display system and meet the fixed target compression ratio (CR). However, the compression efficiency and hardware cost often increase in proportion to the block size and thus, designing a compressor with low cost but high fidelity is challenging. This paper proposes a generic partitioned SPIHT algorithm, which achieves a low-cost design for mobile devices by allowing various sizes of partitioned sub-blocks. By taking advantage of DWT decomposition properties, the proposed algorithm partitions a coding block into sub-blocks, each of which can be processed independently. The independent coding operations among multiple sub-blocks allow the size of the hardware buffer to be decreased, by storing the temporary results only for an individual sub-block. However, the proposed sub-block coding slightly decreases the compression efficiency when each sub-block is compressed with the same target CR. To reduce the drop-off in the compression efficiency, the boundary-pixel handling in DWT is exploited and the proposed partitioned SPIHT method adjusts the target CR for each sub-block depending on the potential quality loss. When compared with the previous 1-D design, experimental results show that the hardware gate count and internal memory are reduced by 59.34% and 75%, respectively. Furthermore, the proposed boundary handling and bit-allocation schemes mitigate the PSNR degradation due to the sub-block coding by 1.11 dB.

A Speed- and Power-Efficient SPIHT Design for Wearable Quality-On-Demand ECG Applications.

In this paper, a speed and power-efficient set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) design is introduced for one-dimensional (1-D) wavelet-based electrocardiography (ECG) compression systems with quality guarantee. To achieve real-time and low-power design objectives toward wearable quality-on-demand (QoD) ECG applications, we first propose a coding-time- and computation-efficient SPIHT algorithm using various types of coding status register files to overcome the disadvantages of low coding speeds and complicated hardware architectures characterizing prior SPIHT algorithms resulting from the necessity of dynamic computation and arrangement in the sorting and refinement processing phase. Second, a highly pipelined and power-efficient very large scale integration (VLSI) architecture is developed to implement a high-performance and low-power SPIHT design based on the proposed algorithm. The final simulation results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm can speed up the average coding time 1.52 to 2.74 times compared to prior work with an identical compression ratio for an 11-level $1024\times 1\,1-{\rm{D}}$ discrete wavelet transform at diverse target percentage root-mean-square differences (PRDT) on various MIT-BIH arrhythmia datasets. Applied to wearable wavelet-based QoD ECG applications, our proposed VLSI architecture attains a working frequency of 740MHz and consumes an average of $\text{23}\ \mu {\text{W}}$ of power with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company 90-nm CMOS technology, which shows the effectiveness of speed and power over the state-of-the-art designs.

Rapid and coding-efficient SPIHT algorithm for wavelet-based ECG data compression

The set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) algorithm is an efficient coding scheme widely used in wavelet-based electrocardiography (ECG) data compression systems. Traditional SPIHT schemes using three lists and a complex sorting process are unsuitable for wearable device design due to their time-consuming nature and low storage efficiency. In this paper, based on a bit-plane representation of quantized wavelet coefficients, a modified SPIHT algorithm is proposed for fast lossless coding. The bit plane is first represented by a tree data structure consisting of two types of primitive trees. The number of primitives is relative to the number of input sampled data. The coding process of the bit-plane data can be regarded as a synthesis that assembles the primitives sequentially based on various decision rules. The assembly rules are further simplified into logic-level decisions in terms of a flag scheme. Using the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, the experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve an up to 64.35% coding time reduction in comparison with the traditional SPIHT algorithm at a cost of a 0.28% bit-rate increase. The proposed algorithm is simple, regular, and modular.

Chaotic Interleaving for the Transmission of Compressed Video Frames with Self-Embedded Digital Signatures

This paper presents an efficient video compression and transmission scheme based on the Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm and chaotic Baker map interleaving. The compressed video frames have self-embedded digital signatures, and the transmission is performed over Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing wireless systems with equalization. The video frames compressed with SPIHT algorithm are primarily converted to the luminance and chrominance scheme for self-watermark embedding, and then the binary format is reconstructed again. Prior to the modulation step, the chaotic randomization is performed on the binary data to encrypt the data to be transmitted and reduce the noise impact of the multipath channel. For performance evaluation, both Rayleigh and additive noise channels are considered for various video frames with chaotic interleaving. The simulation results reveal that the received watermarked video frames with chaotic interleaving applied achieve higher Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratios and correlation coefficients compared to other approaches.

Three‐dimensional separate descendant‐based SPIHT algorithm for fast compression of high‐resolution medical image sequences

To provide a fast compression algorithm for high-resolution medical image sequences, an efficient three-dimensional (3D) separate descendant-based (SBD) set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) algorithm (3D SDB-SPIHT) is proposed in this study. To accelerate the transformation, 3D integer wavelet transform is used first. Based on an efficient spatial–temporal tree structure, which is designed for the transformed coefficients, the authors propose a fast coding scheme by separating the descendant set into offspring set and leaves set. The proposed algorithm has more selectivity in deciding the scanning and coding of the descendant sets and hence the coding time is accelerated. Experimental results demonstrate that 3D SDB-SPIHT compresses medical images faster compared with traditional 3D SPIHT and other variations of 3D SPIHT.

Wavelet-based image coding using saliency map

Visual information is very important in human perceiving of the surrounding world. During the observation of the considered scene, some image parts are more salient than others. This fact is conventionally addressed using the regions of interest approach. We are presenting an approach that captures the saliency information per pixel basis using one continuous saliency map for a whole image and which is directly used in the lossy image compression algorithm. Although for the encoding/decoding part of the algorithm, the notion region is not necessary anymore; the resulting method can, due to its nature, efficiently emulate large amounts of regions of interest with various significance. We provide reference implementation of this approach based on the set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) algorithm and show that the proposed method is effective and has potential to achieve significantly better results in comparison to the original SPIHT algorithm. The approach is not limited to SPIHT algorithm and can be coupled with, e.g., JPEG 2000 as well.

Hardware Implementation of Architecture Techniques for Fast Efficient Lossless Image Compression System

In this research paper, a high throughput memory efficient pipelining architecture for Fast Efficient Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) image compression system is explained. The main aim of this paper is to compress and implement the image without any loss of information. So, we are using spatial oriented tree approach in Fast Efficient SPIHT algorithm for compression and Spartan 3 EDK kit for hardware implementation analysis purpose. Integer wavelet transform is used for encoding and decoding process in SPIHT algorithm. Here, we are using pipelining architecture to implement it in FPGA kit because pipeline architecture is more suitable for hardware utility purpose. Generally an image file will occupy more amount of space. In order to reduce the memory size no loss during transmission we are using this approach. By this way we are attained maximum PSNR value, CR and also produced very high accurate image after decompression, when compared with the results of other previous algorithms. In this module, the hardware tools used are dual core processor and FPGA Spartan 3 EDK kit and the software tool windows 8 operating system and the tool kit is MATLAB 7.8.
