The JPEG decoder performs the reverse steps. Since images compressed by same encoder and same tables, hence when it is to be decoded, they are sent to decoder preceded by one file with table specification data). Since its development, the JPEG codec has been extended (e.g.
Throughout this thesis, JPEG’s lossless mode will not be examined further. Although a lossless mode is part of the JPEG standard, most implementations only support lossy compression. .requirements, the input images to these CV applications are compressed using lossy image compression standards, among which JPEG is the most common. (Since the same encoder-decoder pair is used and they have some tables built in)Ībbreviated format for table and specification data: Where the file contains just tables and number of compressed images. images with continuously changing colors.

(Quantization table and Huffman code table).Ībbreviated Format: Where the file contains compressed image and may contain first a few table. Interchange Format: In which the file contains compressed image and all the tables needed by the decoder. The compressed file may be in one of the 3 formats: Step 7 (Adding Header): The last step adds header and all the JPEG parameters used and output the result. Step 6 (Encoding): The 64 quantized transformed coefficients ( Which are now integers) of each data unit are encoded using a combination of RLE and Huffman coding. In general, the most JPEG implements allow use QC tables recommended by the JPEG standard. This is where information is lost irretrievably, Large QC cause more loss. Step 5 (Quantization): Each of the 64 transformed components in the data unit is divided by a separate number called its ‘Quantization Coefficient (QC)’ and then rounded to an integer. This means that even without the map there will be some loss of image quality but it is normally small. Step 4 ( Discrete Cosine Transform): Discrete Cosine Transform ( DCT) is then applied to each data unit to create 8×8 map of transformed components.DCT involves some loss of information due to the limited precision of computer arithmetic. Step 3 (Organizing in Groups): The pixels of each color component are organized in groups of 8×2 pixels called “ data units” if number of rows or column is not a multiple of 8, the bottom row and rightmost columns are duplicated. In this paper, the authors analyze in more details an image encryption scheme, proposed by the authors in their earlier work, which preserves input image statistics and can be used in connection with the JPEG compression standard. Thus the image reduces in size since the ‘y’ component is not touched, there is no noticeable loss of image quality. Down sampling is done either at a ratio 2:1 horizontally and 1:1 vertically (2h 1 V). Step 2 (Down Sampling): The down sampling is done for colored component and not for luminance component. Step 1 (Transformation): Color images are transformed from RGB into a luminance/chrominance image (Eye is sensitive to luminance, not chrominance, so that chrominance part can lose much data and thus can be highly compressed.
