Author 1: Jesus Jaime Moreno-Escobar Author 2: Oswaldo Morales-Matamoros Author 3: Ricardo Tejeida-Padilla Author 4: Ana Lilia Coria-Paes Author 5: Teresa Ivonne Contreras-Troya

In this document we present a methodology to quantize wavelet coefficients for any wavelet-base entropy coder, we apply it in the particular case of JPEG2000. Any compression system have three main steps: Transformation in terms of fre-quency, Quantization and Entropy Coding. The only responsible for reducing or maintaining precision is… Read full abstract & cite →
