Performance evaluation of different filter banks in the JPEG-2000 baseline system
The performance of several decorrelating transforms is evaluated in the JPEG-2000 baseline system. The transforms considered are based on uniform parallel 2-channel and 8-channel filter banks and discrete cosine transform (DCT) building blocks. Through the analysis of lossy compression results, a system employing a combination of 8- channel and 2-channel filter banks is found to perform best overall. Also, the performance of several reversible transforms is evaluated in the same coding framework. Based on lossy and lossless compression results, a reversible version of the Cohen-Daubechies-Feauveau (2,2) wavelet transform was found to be most effective.
