Due to the spectral sensitivity phenomenon of the Human Visual System (HVS), the color channels of raw RGB 4:4:4 sequences contain significant psychovisual redundancies; these redundancies can be perceptually quantized. The default…

There is an increasing consumer demand for high bit-depth 4:4:4 HD video data playback due to its superior perceptual visual quality compared with standard 8-bit subsampled 4:2:0 video data. Due to vast file sizes and associated bitrates,…

In perceptual image coding applications, the main objective is to decrease, as much as possible, Bits Per Pixel (BPP) while avoiding noticeable distortions in the reconstructed image. In this paper, we propose a novel perceptual image…

HEVC includes a Coding Unit (CU) level luminance-based perceptual quantization technique known as AdaptiveQP. AdaptiveQP perceptually adjusts the Quantization Parameter (QP) at the CU level based on the spatial activity of raw input video…

Due to the increasing prevalence of high bit depth and YCbCr 4:4:4 video data, it is desirable to develop a JND-based visually lossless coding technique which can account for high bit depth 4:4:4 data in addition to standard 8-bit precision…

The default quantisation algorithms in the state-of-the-art High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard, namely Uniform Reconstruction Quantisation (URQ) and Rate-Distortion Optimised Quantisation (RDOQ), do not take into account the…

The JCT-VC standardized Screen Content Coding (SCC) extension in the HEVC HM RExt + SCM reference codec offers an impressive coding efficiency performance when compared with HM RExt alone; however, it is not significantly perceptually…

To provide users with more realistic visual experiences, videos are developing in the trends of Ultra High Definition (UHD), High Frame Rate (HFR), High Dynamic Range (HDR), Wide Color Gammut (WCG) and high clarity. However, the data amount…

HEVC HM 16 includes a Coding Unit (CU) level perceptual quantization technique named AdaptiveQP. AdaptiveQP adjusts the Quantization Parameter (QP) at the CU level based on the spatial activity of samples in the four constituent NxN…

JCT-VC HEVC HM 16 includes a Coding Unit (CU) level adaptive Quantization Parameter (QP) technique named AdaptiveQP. It is designed to perceptually adjust the QP in Y, Cb and Cr Coding Blocks (CBs) based only on the variance of samples in a…

The soft context formation coder is a pixel-wise state-of-the-art lossless screen content coder using pattern matching and color palette coding in combination with arithmetic coding. It achieves excellent compression performance on screen…

With the wide applications of colored point cloud in many fields, point cloud perceptual quality assessment plays a vital role in the visual communication systems owing to the existence of quality degradations introduced in various stages.…

Mainstream image and video coding standards -- including state-of-the-art codecs like H.266/VVC, AVS3, and AV1 -- adopt a block-based hybrid coding framework. While this framework facilitates straightforward optimization for Peak…

Large-scale pre-trained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have gained prominence in various visual and multimodal tasks, yet the deployment of VLMs on downstream application platforms remains challenging due to their prohibitive requirements of…

Perceptual image super-resolution (SR) methods restore degraded images and produce sharp outputs. In practice, those outputs are usually recompressed for storage and transmission. Ignoring recompression is suboptimal as the downstream codec…

Virtual Reality (VR) has the potential of becoming the next ubiquitous computing platform. Continued progress in the burgeoning field of VR depends critically on an efficient computing substrate. In particular, DRAM access energy is known…

Human perception is at the core of lossy video compression, with numerous approaches developed for perceptual quality assessment and improvement over the past two decades. In the determination of perceptual quality, different…

This paper describes a quality assessment model for perceptual video compression applications (PVM), which stimulates visual masking and distortion-artefact perception using an adaptive combination of noticeable distortions and blurring…

Hyperspectral images, which record the electromagnetic spectrum for a pixel in the image of a scene, often store hundreds of channels per pixel and contain an order of magnitude more information than a similarly-sized RBG color image.…

With the growing demand for video applications, many advanced learned video compression methods have been developed, outperforming traditional methods in terms of objective quality metrics such as PSNR. Existing methods primarily focus on…
