3、 compared to ITU-T Rec. T.81 | ISO/IEC 10918-1 (JPEG-1). Support of the Huffman entropy coding method specified in ITU-T Rec. T.81 (JPEG-1) is not required in this Recommendation. The Q15-coder resolves the carry in the decoder instead of in the encoder, and so has a low latency compared to the QM-c

4、oder arithmetic coder incorporated in T.81, which has a potential latency of the rest of the entire entropy-coded segment. This Recommendation also specifies a DCT with input precision of 16 bits, which is greater than the precision of the T.81 (JPEG-1) DCT. Source ITU-T Recommendation T.851 was app

Keywords Alternative baseline, Q15-coder, still-image coding, still-image compression, still images. ii ITU-T Rec. T.851 (09/2005) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is

6、the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing

7、 telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by

8、 the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate bo

9、th a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when a

10、ll of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY R

11、IGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by

12、ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that thi

T.851 (09/2005) Introduction ITU-T Rec. T.81 | ISO/IEC 10918-1 (T.81) specifies a process for digital compression and coding of contin

16、uous-tone still images. T.81 contains two entropy coders: Huffman coding and an arithmetic coder called the “QM-coder“. The Huffman coding method is required in the T.81 baseline. For all other encoding processes (extended sequential, progressive, hierarchical, and lossless), the use of all defined

17、entropy coders is allowed. This Recommendation defines a still-image coding method based on ITU-T Rec. T.81 (JPEG-1) which makes use of an alternative arithmetic encoder called the “Q15-coder“, and defines an “alternative baseline“ compared to ITU-T Rec. T.81. In this Recommendation, support for Huf

18、fman coding is not required. NOTE Images encoded according to this Recommendation can be losslessly transcoded to or from any of the entropy coding methods of ITU-T Rec. T.81, including the baseline Huffman coding of ITU-T Rec. T.81. All decoders which support any DCT-based process defined in Table

19、1 shall also be capable of decoding bitstream conforming to the alternative baseline. Interoperability with the Huffman-based baseline of T.81 is not required by this Recommendation, but might be required by an application incorporating this Recommendation. An application specification might require

20、 a dual-mode entropy codec, or a server-based transcoding facility. ITU-T Rec. T.851 (09/2005) 1 ITU-T Recommendation T.851 ITU-T T.81 (JPEG-1)-based still-image coding using an alternative arithmetic coder 1 Scope This Recommendation is applicable to continuous-tone, greyscale or colour, digital st

21、ill-image data. According to the principles of ITU-T Rec. T.80, it enhances T.81 technologies by providing an additional arithmetic coder. This Recommendation: defines an arithmetic coder (“Q15-coder“) for use with T.81 technologies; extends the DCT input precision to 16 bits; provides an alternativ

22、e baseline in which no Huffman coding is required. The provisions of ITU-T Rec. T.81 | ISO/IEC 10918-1 shall apply to this Recommendation with the exceptions, additions, and deletions given in this Recommendation. 2 References 2.1 Normative references The following ITU-T Recommendations and other re
