JPEG2000 is a highly scalable compression standard, allowing access to image representations with a reduced resolution, a reduced quality or confined to a spatial region of interest. As such, it is well placed to play an important role in interactive imaging applications. However, the standard

An adaptive unequal channel protection technique is proposed for JPEG2000 images by exploiting the hierarchical structure of the bit-stream. The proposed technique takes into account the effect of channel errors in different packets of the bit-stream in order to optimally protect the coded data

Abstract: JPEG2000 image compression standard provides good compression efficiency in image coding. But the resulted JPEG2000 bit stream is very sensitive to noise error and packet loss. Both of the error sources result in loss of some least significant bits in the decoded coefficients

A data capacity estimation method is proposed for image watermarking. The data capacity is maximum number of bits that can be embedded in an image such that the image has no perceptual loss. It is assumed that the input is a JPEG2000 image file and after watermark embedding, the image is JPEG2000

Abstract—This paper describes and analyzes JPIP-W, an innovative proposal for the interactive transmission of JPEG2000 images on the Internet. JPIP-W is an extension of JPIP, the current JPEG protocol proposed for interactive JPEG2000 image browsing. One of the JPIP characteristics of greatest

JPEG2000 is a very promising still image standard because of its excellent performances. However, it also causes higher complexity to implement. In practice, in JPEG2000 coding systems, an image is segmented into serial tiles and each tile is compressed or transformed independently, thus creating

Image compression requires higher performance as well as new features to address the need in the specific area of still image encoding, a new standard is currently being developed, that is JPEG2000. The JPEG2000 standard provides a set of features that are of vital importance to many high

The new image compression standard, JPEG2000, provides higher compression rates for the same visual quality for grayscale and color images than JPEG. JPEG2000 is being adopted for image compression and transmission, e.g. in mobile phones, PDAs, and wearable computers. Depending on the application

Motivated by error concealment applications, this letter proposes a method for the post-processing of JPEG-2000 compressed images at very low bitrates. The proposed method counterintuitively employs further compression to achieve image enhancement. This approach, although not widely known
