A Fast and Accurate Prediction of Distortions in DCT-Based Lossy Image Compression
PublicationSince the number of acquired images and their size have the tendency to increase, their lossy compression is widely applied for their storage, transfer, and dissemination. Simultaneously with providing a relatively large compression ratio, lossy compression produces distortions that are inevitably introduced and have to be controlled. The properties of these distortions depend on several factors such as image properties, the...
