Advanced objective measurement criteria applied to image compression
Šimek, Josef ; Průša, Zdeněk (referee) ; Malý, Jan (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the problem of using an objective quality assessment methods in image data compression. Lossy compression always introduces some kind of distortion into the processed data causing degradation in the quality of the image. The intensity of this distortion can be measured using subjective or objective methods. To be able to optimize compression algorithms the objective criteria are used. In this work the SSIM index as a useful tool for describing the quality of compressed images has been presented. Lossy compression scheme is realized using the wavelet transform and SPIHT algorithm. The modification of this algorithm using partitioning of the wavelet coefficients into the separate tree-preserving blocks followed by independent coding, which is especially suitable for parallel processing, was implemented. For the given compression ratio the traditional problem is being solved – how to allocate available bits among the spatial blocks to achieve the highest possible image quality. The possible approaches to achieve this solution were discussed. As a result, some methods for bit allocation based on MSSIM index were proposed. To test the effectivity of these methods the MATLAB environment was used.

Compression of ECG signals recorded using mobile ECG device
Had, Filip ; Vítek, Martin (referee) ; Němcová, Andrea (advisor)
Signal compression is necessary part for ECG scanning, because of relatively big amount of data, which must be transmitted primarily wirelessly for analysis. Because of the wireless sending it is necessary to minimize the amount of data as much as possible. To minimize the amount of data, lossless or lossy compression algorithms are used. This work describes an algorithm SPITH and newly created experimental method, based on PNG, and their testing. This master’s thesis there is also a bank of ECG signals with parallel sensed accelerometer data. In the last part, modification of SPIHT algorithm, which uses accelerometer data, is described and realized.

Video compression based on wavelet transform
Kintl, Vojtěch ; Číka, Petr (referee) ; Malý, Jan (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on current possibilities concerning the employment of wavelet transformation for video signal compression. One part of the work is devoted to the necessary execution of this task in practise. This deals with video signal and its features description, wavelet transformation and compression methods. The second part concentrates on description of selected compression method. It is the SPIHT (Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees) algorithm which is intended for compression of static image data. The algorithm is modified for usage with video signal compression which is specific for its time redundancy. The algorithm is called 3D SPIHT as it works in the spatial and time domain. The algorithm is implemented in the MATLAB programming environment which provides a sophisticated support for wavelet transformation (Wavelet Toolbox). To provide a simple and intuitive encoder control there has been developed an application delivering graphical user interface (GUI). On displayed image previews and measured graphs the user can change encoder parameters and monitor performed changes. There are four image test-sequential modes containing various scenes with different features. The final part of the work is focused on testing of the proposed encoding scheme, various image test-sequential modes and encoder settings. Measured values are graphically displayed and analyzed.

Image Compression Using the Wavelet Transform
Přikryl, Lukáš ; Maršík, Lukáš (referee) ; Bařina, David (advisor)
The thesis discusses the image compression using the wavelet transform. The compression itself is done by EZW, SPIHT or EBCOT Tier1 algorithms. These algorithms are then compared to JPEG and JPEG2000 standards. Furthermore tiles, various wavelets and RGB and Y'CbCr color spaces were used to determine the influence on an image compression quality.

JAVA-based effective implementation of an image compression tool
Průša, Zdeněk ; Rajmic, Pavel (referee) ; Malý, Jan (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with digital image lossy compression. Lossy compression in general inserts some kind of distorsion to the resulting image. The distorsion should not be interupting or even noticable in the better case. For image analysis there is used process called transformation and for choosing relevant coefficients process called coding. Evaluation of image quallity can be done by objective or subjective method. There is encoder introduced and realized in this work. Encoder utilizes two-dimension wavelet transform and SPIHT algortihm for coefficient coding. It was made use of accelerated method of wavelet transform computation by lifting scheme. Coder can proccess color information of images using modificated original SPIHT algorithm. For implementation the JAVA programming language was employed. The object-oriented design principes was made use of and thus the program is easy to extended. At demonstaration pictures there are shown effectiveness and characteristic way of distorsion of the proposed coder at high compression rates.

Compression and Quality Assessment of ECG Signals
Němcová, Andrea ; Tkacz,, Professor Ewaryst (referee) ; Kudrna,, Petr (referee) ; Vítek, Martin (advisor)
Ztrátová komprese signálů EKG je užitečná a v současnosti stále se rozvíjející oblast. Stále se vyvíjí nové a nové kompresní algoritmy. V této oblasti ale chybí standardy pro hodnocení kvality signálu po kompresi. Existuje tedy sice mnoho různých kompresních algoritmů, které ale buď nelze objektivně porovnat vůbec, nebo jen zhruba. V oblasti komprese navíc nikde není popsáno, zda mají na výkon kompresních algoritmů vliv patologie, popřípadě jaký. Tato dizertační práce poskytuje přehled všech nalezených metod pro hodnocení kvality signálů EKG po kompresi. Navíc bylo vytvořeno 10 nových metod. V rámci práce byla provedena analýza všech těchto metod a na základě jejích výsledků bylo doporučeno 12 metod vhodných pro hodnocení kvality signálu EKG po kompresi. Také je zde představen nový kompresní algoritmus „Single-Cycle Fractal-Based (SCyF)“. Algoritmus SCyF je inspirován metodou založenou na fraktálech a využívá jednoho cyklu signálu EKG jako domény. Algoritmus SCyF byl testován na čtyřech různých databázích, přičemž kvalita signálů po kompresi byla vyhodnocena 12 doporučenými metodami. Výsledky byly porovnány s velmi populárním kompresním algoritmem založeným na vlnkové transformaci, který využívá metodu „Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT)“. Postup testování zároveň slouží jako příklad, jak by měl vypadat standard hodnocení výkonu kompresních algoritmů. Dále bylo statisticky prokázáno, že existuje rozdíl mezi kompresí fyziologických a patologických signálů. Patologické signály byly komprimovány s nižší efektivitou a kvalitou než signály fyziologické.

Compression of ECG signal
Blaschová, Eliška ; Němcová, Andrea (referee) ; Vítek, Martin (advisor)
This paper represents the most well-known compression methods, which have been published. A Compression of ECG signal is important primarily for space saving in memory cards or efficiency improvement of data transfer. An application of wavelet transform for compression is a worldwide discussed topic and this is the reason why the paper focuses in this direction. Gained wavelet coefficients might be firstly quantized and then compressed using suitable method. There are many options for a selection of wavelet and a degree of decomposition, which will be tested from the point of view of the most efficient compression of ECG signal.
