Neural net architectures, with a hidden layer or functional links, have been utilized to generate prediction for one dimensional DPCM, applied to still image coding. In this approach, the predictor is designed by supervised training based on a typical sequence of pixel values, i.e., the values of the coefficients of the predictor are determined by training on examples. Nonlinear as well as linear correlations are exploited. Computer simulation experiments have been carried out to evaluate the resulting performance. At a transmission rate of 1 bit/pixel, for the images LENA and BABOON, the 1-D neural network DPCM provides a 4.17 and 3.74 db improvement in peak SNR, respectively, over the standard linear DPCM system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
