The problem of how to automatically provide a desired (required) visual quality in lossy
compression of still images and video frames is considered in this paper. The quality can be …

It is shown that images can be subject to lossy compression in such a way that introduced
distortions are not visible. For this purpose, two modern visual quality metrics, MSSIM and …

This chapter deals with lossy compression of images that have been corrupted by additive
noise. The chapter's key contribution is that the analysis is done from the perspective of …

In many applications, it is desirable to provide visually lossless (but, in fact, lossy)
compression of still images. This can be done using modern visual quality metrics and …

Lossy compression is widely used in practice of image processing. However, noise present
in images is not always taken into account in lossy compression and evaluation of its …

The application of hyperspectral imaging to detect soil contaminations is considered with
respect to contamination assessment within urban areas. An optimal selection of …

Approaches to automation of lossy image compression providing a required visual quality
according to a chosen visual quality metric are discussed. As examples, the HVS-metrics …

Compression is a typical operation applied in image processing. Lossy compression is
widely used although it introduces distortions that might lead to degradation of image visual …

Amount and size of remote sensing (RS) images acquired by modern systems are so large
that data have to be compressed in order to transfer, save and disseminate them. Lossy …

A task of alternative (faster and more efficient in compression ratio sense) coding of discrete
cosine transform (DCT) coefficients within JPEG based image compression approach is …
