A Review of the Theory and Applications of Optimal Subband and Transform Coders
نویسنده
چکیده
The problem of optimizing digital filter banks based on input statistics was perhaps first addressed nearly four decades ago by Huang and Schultheiss. These authors actually considered a special case, namely transform coder optimization. Many of the subband coder optimization problems considered in recent years have close similarities to this work, though there are fundamental differences as well. Filter banks are used today not only for signal compression, but have found applications in signal denoising, and in digital communications. A recent result is that principal component filter banks (PCFBs) offer an optimal solution to many problems under certain theoretical assumptions. While this result is quite powerful and includes several earlier results as special cases, there still remain some open problems in the area of filter bank optimization. We first give a review of the older classical methods to place the ideas in the right perspective. We then review recent results on PCFBs. The generality of these results is demonstrated by showing an application in digital communications (the discrete multitone channel). We show, for example, that the PCFB minimizes transmitted power for a given probability of error and bit rate. Future directions and open problems are discussed as well.

Theory of optimal orthonormal subband coders
The theory of the orthogonal transform coder and methods for its optimal design have been known for a long time. In this paper, we derive a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for the coding-gain optimality of an orthonormal subband coder for given input statistics. We also show how these conditions can be satisfied by the construction of a sequence of optimal compaction filters one at a...
متن کاملOn the duality of optimal DMT systems and biorthogonal subband coders
The discrete multitone modulation (DMT) systems have been widely used in various applications. The DMT system can be considered as a dual of a subband coder, obtained by using the synthesis bank as the transmitter and analysis bank as the receiver. In designing optimal subband coders, the objective is to minimize output quantization noise, whereas in the problem of designing optimal DMT system,...
متن کاملJoint filterbanks for echo cancellation and audio coding
In this paper, joint structures for audio coding and echo cancellation are investigated, utilizing standard audio coders. Two types of audio coders are considered, coders based on cosine modulated filterbanks and coders based on the modified discrete cosine transform (MDCT). For the first coder type, two methods for combining such a coder with a subband echo canceler are proposed. The two metho...
متن کاملControl Theory and Economic Policy Optimization: The Origin, Achievements and the Fading Optimism from a Historical Standpoint
Economists were interested in economic stabilization policies as early as the 1930’s but the formal applications of stability theory from the classical control theory to economic analysis appeared in the early 1950’s when a number of control engineers actively collaborated with economists on economic stability and feedback mechanisms. The theory of optimal control resulting from the contributio...
متن کاملPlanelet Transform: A New Geometrical Wavelet for Compression of Kinect-like Depth Images
With the advent of cheap indoor RGB-D sensors, proper representation of piecewise planar depth images is crucial toward an effective compression method. Although there exist geometrical wavelets for optimal representation of piecewise constant and piecewise linear images (i.e. wedgelets and platelets), an adaptation to piecewise linear fractional functions which correspond to depth variation ov...
