ABSTRACT:
The quality of reconstructed images is improved by a post-processing method at the decoder which uses codeword-dependent, spatially-varying 2-dimensional filters. The post-filtering, working across block boundaries, reduces coding artifacts and increases the signal-to-noise ratio. The technique is applicable for use with any VQ-based image compression and can also be used in conjunction with image magnification.
