Video images compression method based on floating positional coding with an unequal codograms length

Abstract

The subject of research in the article are the video images compression and encryption processes during the critically important objects managing process. The goal is to develop a method for compressing video images based on floating positional coding with an uneven codegrams length to simultaneously ensure information reliability and confidentiality during its transmission with a given time delay. Objectives: analyzing existing approaches to ensuring the video images confidentiality; development a method for compressing video images based on floating positional coding with an uneven codegrams length; evaluate the developed method effectiveness. The methods used are: digital image processing methods, digital image compression methods, image encryption and scrambling methods, structural-combinatorial coding methods, statistical analysis methods. The following results are obtained. The technology of floating encoding of an uneven sequence of blocks is proposed. Code values are formed from elements of different video image blocks. For this, a scheme for linearizing an image point coordinates from its four-dimensional representation on a plane into a one-dimensional element coordinate in a vector has been developed. The four-dimensional element coordinate on the plane describes the image block coordinates and the coordinates of the element in this block. Code values are formed under conditions of control their binary representation's length. At the same time, coding is implemented for an indeterminate number of video image elements. The number of elements depends on the length of the code word. Accordingly, codegrams with an indeterminate length are formed. Their length depends on the service data values, generated during the encoding process. Service data acts as a key element. Conclusions. The one-stage polyadic image encoding method in a differentiated basis has been further improved. The developed encoding method provides image compression without information quality loss. The original images volume compression provides by 3–20 % better compared to the TIFF data presentation format and by 4–15 % compared to the PNG format. The overhead amount is less than 2.5 % of the entire codestream size.

BPG-based compression analysis of Poisson-noisy medical images

“…This technique is commonly used in medical imaging applications where even the slightest loss of image data could have significant consequences on diagnosis and treatment decisions [5,6]. Lossy compression [7][8][9][10], on the other hand, involves the removal of certain image data to achieve higher compression rates. Although this technique results in smaller file sizes, it also leads to some loss of image quality, which may not be acceptable in medical imaging applications [11][12][13][14].…”
