Study Notes

Fundamentals of Data Compression

Data compression is the process of reducing the amount of data required to represent a given quantity of information.
Data and information are not the same; various amounts of data can be used to represent the same information.
Data redundancy refers to the presence of elements in data that provide no relevant information.

Data Redundancy

Data redundancy is a central issue in image compression and can be quantified mathematically.
The compression ratio (CR) is defined as the ratio of the original data size to the compressed data size: CR = n1 / n2.
The relative redundancy (RD) is defined as RD = 1 - 1/CR.

Example of Data Redundancy

If an image is compressed from 1MB to 0.4MB, the compression ratio is 2.5, and the relative redundancy is 60%.

Psycho-visual Redundancy

The human visual system is less sensitive to huge variations in gray levels or colors, but more sensitive to edges and texture.
This redundancy can be exploited in image compression.

Fidelity Criteria

The error between two functions is given by e(x, y) = f(x, y) - f'(x, y).
The total error between two images is the sum of the squared errors over all pixels.
The root-mean-square error (erms) is a measure of the fidelity of the compressed image.
The mean square signal to noise ratio (SNRms) is another fidelity criterion.

Data Redundancy and Compression Ratio

If n1 = n2, CR = 1, and RD = 0, indicating no redundancy.
If n1 >> n2, CR → ∞, and RD → 1, indicating high redundancy.
A compression ratio of 10 means that the original data set has 10 information-carrying units for every 1 unit in the compressed data set.

Types of Redundancy

Coding redundancy refers to the use of inefficient coding schemes.
Inter-pixel redundancy refers to the correlation between adjacent pixels.
Psycho-visual redundancy refers to the redundancy in the human visual system's perception of images.
