The DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) based coding process of full color images is standardized by the JPEG (Joint Photographic Expert Group). The JPEG method is applied widely, for example a color facsimile. The quantization table in the JPEG coding influences image quality. However, detailed researc

โฆ Synopsis
In this paper, we propose a systematic procedure to design a quantization table based on the human visual system model for the baseline JPEG coder. By incorporating the human visual system model with a uniform quantizer, a perceptual quantization table is derived. The quantization table can be easily adapted to the speci"ed resolution for viewing and printing. Experimental results indicate that the derived HVS-based quantization table can achieve better performance in rate-distortion sense than the JPEG default quantization table.
