New innovative research trends are more essential in the area of image compression for various imaging applications. These applications require good visual quality in processing. In general the tradeoff between compression efficiency and picture quality is the most important parameter to validate the work. The existing algorithms for still image compression were developed by considering the compression efficiency parameter by giving least importance to the visual quality in processing. Hence, we proposed a novel lossless image compression algorithm which efficiently suited for various types of digital images. Thus, in this work, we specifically address the following problem that is to maintain the compression ratio for better visual quality in the reconstruction and considerable gain in the values of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR). We considered medical images , satellite extracted images and natural images for the inspection and proposed a novel procedure named as Novel Optimized Golomb Rice Coding (NOGR) to increase the visual quality of the reconstructed image. The result of the proposed technique outperforms present techniques and the results are simulated using MATLAB.

무손실 오디오 부호화기에 있어서 선형예측기 및 이에 적합한 엔트로피 부호화기의 설계가 가장 중요한 부분이다. 본 논문에서는 공분산 방법에 콜레스키 분해를 이용하여 선형예측기의 계수를 계산하였고, 그 결과를 다항 예측기와 비교하여 예측 에러가 최소화되는 선형예측기를 선택하도록 하였다. 엔트로피 부호화기는 골롬-라이스 부호를 사용하였고, 골롬-라이스 부호화기의 매개변수를 계산하기 위해 블록기반 매개변수 예측 방법과 LOCO-I, RLGR의 순차 적응 방법을 적용하였다. 실험 결과 블록기반 매개변수 예측 방법과 제안 방식의 예측기를 이용하면 자기상관 방법과 레빈슨-더빈을 사용하는 FLAC 무손실 부호화기보다 $2.2879%{\sim}0.3413%$ 압축률이 향상되는 결과를 나타내었고, 제안 방식의 예측기와 LOCO-I 순차 적응 방법을 이용한 경우는 $2.2381%{\sim}0.0214%$ 압축률이 향상되는 결과를 나타내었다. 그러나 제안 방식의 예측기와 RLGR 순차 적응 방법을 이용한 경우는 특정 신호에서만 압축률이 향상되었다.

Design of a linear predictor and matching of an entropy coder is the art of lossless audio coding. In this paper, we use the covariance method and the Choleskey decomposition for calculating linear prediction coefficients instead of the autocorreation method and the Levinson-Durbin recursion. These results are compared to the polynomial predictor. Both of them, the predictor which has small prediction error is selected. For the entropy coding, we use the Golomb-Rice coder using the block-based parameter estimation method and the sequential adaptation method with LOCO-land RLGR. The proposed predictor and the block-based parameter estimation have $2.2879%{\sim}0.3413%$ improved compression ratios compared to FLAC lossless audio coder which use the autocorrelation method and the Levinson-Durbin recursion. The proposed predictor and the LOCO-I adaptation method could improved by $2.2879%{\sim}0.3413%$. But the proposed predictor and the RLGR adaptation method got better results with specific signals.
