The document describes a proposed high speed and area efficient 2D discrete wavelet transform (DWT) processor design for image compression applications implemented on FPGAs. The design uses a pipelined partially serial architecture to enhance speed while optimally utilizing FPGA resources. Simulation results show the design operating at 231MHz on a Spartan 3 FPGA, a 15% improvement over alternative designs. Resource utilization and speed are improved compared to previous implementations through the optimized DWT processor architecture and FPGA platform choice.
A High Performance Modified SPIHT for Scalable Image CompressionCSCJournals
In this paper, we present a novel extension technique to the Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) based image compression with spatial scalability. The present modification and the preprocessing techniques provide significantly better quality (both subjectively and objectively) reconstruction at the decoder with little additional computational complexity. There are two proposals for this paper. Firstly, we propose a pre-processing scheme, called Zero-Shifting, that brings the spatial values in signed integer range without changing the dynamic ranges, so that the transformed coefficient calculation becomes more consistent. For that reason, we have to modify the initialization step of the SPIHT algorithms. The experiments demonstrate a significant improvement in visual quality and faster encoding and decoding than the original one. Secondly, we incorporate the idea to facilitate resolution scalable decoding (not incorporated in original SPIHT) by rearranging the order of the encoded output bit stream. During the sorting pass of the SPIHT algorithm, we model the transformed coefficient based on the probability of significance, at a fixed threshold of the offspring. Calling it a fixed context model and generating a Huffman code for each context, we achieve comparable compression efficiency to that of arithmetic coder, but with much less computational complexity and processing time. As far as objective quality assessment of the reconstructed image is concerned, we have compared our results with popular Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and with Structural Similarity Index (SSIM). Both these metrics show that our proposed work is an improvement over the original one.

Advance Digital Video Watermarking based on DWT-PCA for Copyright protectionIJERA Editor
Now a days there is use of digital multimedia applications are increased. Digital image watermarking techniques can be classified into spatial or transform domains. The spatial domain methods are the simplest watermarking techniques but have low robustness against different attacks, unlike the transform domains watermarking methods are more complex and have high robustness against various attacks. Most commonly used methods of watermarking are discrete cosine transform (DCT), discrete wavelet transform (DWT).A hybrid digital video watermarking scheme based on Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA). These transform domain technique always give more robust output than DCT and DWT The video frames are first decomposed using DWT and the binary watermark is embedded in the principal components of the low frequency wavelet coefficients Here in order to improve the robustness of water mark Haar filtering must be used in order to get PSNR as much as possible Experimental result shows no visible difference between the watermarked frames and original frame. It shows robustness on the watermarked video against various attacks. Peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) is calculated to measure efficiency of this all methods. And this value must be increased up to the level.
Multiple Binary Images Watermarking in Spatial and Frequency Domainssipij
Editing, reproduction and distribution of the digital multimedia are becoming extremely easier and faster with the existence of the internet and the availability of pervasive and powerful multimedia tools. Digital watermarking has emerged as a possible method to tackle these issues. This paper proposes a scheme using which more data can be inserted into an image in different domains using different techniques. This increases the embedding capacity. Using the proposed scheme 24 binary images can be embedded in the DCT domain and 12 binary images can be embedded in the spatial domain using LSB substitution technique in a single RGB image. The proposed scheme also provides an extra level of security to the watermark image by scrambling the image before embedding it into the host image. Experimental results show that the proposed watermarking method results in almost invisible difference between the watermarked image and the original image and is also robust against various image processing attacks.
Dynamic Texture Coding using Modified Haar Wavelet with CUDAIJERA Editor
Texture is an image having repetition of patterns. There are two types, static and dynamic texture. Static texture is an image having repetitions of patterns in the spatial domain. Dynamic texture is number of frames having repetitions in spatial and temporal domain. This paper introduces a novel method for dynamic texture coding to achieve higher compression ratio of dynamic texture using 2D-modified Haar wavelet transform. The dynamic texture video contains high redundant parts in spatial and temporal domain. Redundant parts can be removed to achieve high compression ratios with better visual quality. The modified Haar wavelet is used to exploit spatial and temporal correlations amongst the pixels. The YCbCr color model is used to exploit chromatic components as HVS is less sensitive to chrominance. To decrease the time complexity of algorithm parallel programming is done using CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture). GPU contains the number of cores as compared to CPU, which is utilized to reduce the time complexity of algorithms.

here it introduces an efficient multi-resolution watermarking methodology for copyright protection of digital images. By adapting the watermark signal to the wavelet coefficients, the proposed method is highly image adaptive and the watermark signal can be strengthen in the most significant parts of the image. As this property also increases the watermark visibility, usage of the human visual system is incorporated to prevent perceptual visibility of embedded watermark signal. Experimental results show that the proposed system preserves the image quality and is vulnerable against most common image processing distortions. Furthermore, the hierarchical nature of wavelet transform allows for detection of watermark at various resolutions, resulting in reduction of the computational load needed for watermark detection based on the noise level. The performance of the proposed system is shown to be superior to that of other available schemes reported in the literature.

Empirical Evaluation of Decomposition Strategy for Wavelet Video CompressionCSCJournals
Abstract The wavelet transform has become the most interesting new algorithm for video compression. Yet there are many parameters within a wavelet analysis and synthesis which govern the quality of a decoded video. In this paper different wavelet decomposition strategies and their implications for the decoded video are discussed. A pool of color video sequences has been wavelet-transformed at different settings of the wavelet filter bank and quantization threshold and with decomposition of dyadic and packet wavelet transformation strategies. The empirical evaluation of the decomposition strategy is based on three benchmarks: a first judgment regards the perceived quality of the decoded video. The compression rate is a second crucial factor, and finally the best parameter setting with regards to the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR). The investigation proposes dyadic decomposition as the chosen decomposition strategy.

In this paper, a scheme for the design of area efficient and high speed pipeline VLSI architecture for the computation of fixed point 1-d discrete wavelet transform using lifting scheme is proposed. The main focus of the scheme is to reduce the number and period of clock cycles and efficient area with little or no overhead on hardware resources. The fixed point representation requires less hardware resources compared with floating point representation. The pipelining architecture speeds up the clock rate of DWT and reduced bit precision reduces the area required for implementation. The architecture has been coded in verilog HDL on Xilinx platform and the target FPGA device used is Virtex-II Pro family, XC2VP7- 7board. The proposed scheme requires the least computing time for fixed point 1-D DWT and achieves the
less area for implementation, compared with other architectures. So this architecture is realizable for real time processing of DWT computation applications.

Neural network based image compression with lifting scheme and rlceSAT Journals
Abstract Image compression is a process that helps in fast data transfer and effective memory utilization. In effect, the objective is to reduce data redundancy of the image while retaining high image quality. This paper proposes an approach for Wavelet based Image Compression using MLFF Neural Network with Error Back Propagation (EBP) training algorithm for second level approximation component and modified RLC is applied on second level Horizontal and Vertical components with threshold to discard insignificant coefficients. All other sub-bands (i.e. Detail components of 1st level and Diagonal component of 2nd level) that do not affect the quality of image (both subjective and objective) are neglected. With the proposed method in this paper CR (27.899), PSNR (70.16 dB) and minimum MSE (0.0063) of still image obtained are better when compared with SOFM, EZW and SPIHT. Keywords: Image compression, wavelet, MLFFNN, EBP

A Detailed Survey on VLSI Architectures for Lifting based DWT for efficient h...VLSICS Design
Evaluating the previous work is an important part of developing new hardware efficient methods for the implementation of DWT through Lifting schemes. The aim of this paper is to give a review of VLSI architectures for efficient hardware implementation of wavelet lifting schemes. The inherent in place computation of lifting scheme has many advantages over conventional convolution based DWT. The architectures are represented in terms of parallel filter, row column, folded, flipping and recursive structures. The methods for scanning of images are the line-based and the block-based and their characteristics for the given application are given. The various architectures are analyzed in terms of hardware and timing complexity involved with the given size of input image and required levels of decomposition. This study is useful for deriving an efficient method for improving the speed and hardware complexities of existing architectures and to design a new hardware implementation of multilevel DWT using lifting schemes.
Highly Parallel Pipelined VLSI Implementation of Lifting Based 2D Discrete Wa...idescitation
The lifting scheme based Discrete Wavelet
Transform is a powerful tool for image processing
applications. The lack of disk space during transmission and
storage of images pushes the demand for high speed
implementation of efficient compression technique. This paper
proposes a highly pipelined and distributed VLSI architecture
of lifting based 2D DWT with lifting coefficients represented
in fixed point [2:14] format. Compared to conventional
architectures [11], [13]-[16], the proposed highly pipelined
architecture optimizes the design which increases
significantly the performance speed. The design raises the
operating frequency, at the expense of more hardware area.
In this paper, initially a software model of the proposed design
was developed using MATLAB ®. Corresponding to this
software model, an efficient highly parallel pipelined
architecture was designed and developed using verilog HDL
language and implemented in VIRTEX ® 6 (XC6VHX380T)
FPGA. Also the design was synthesized on TSMC 0.18μm
ASIC Library by using Synopsis Design Compiler. The entire
system is suitable for several real time applications.

Image compression using Hybrid wavelet Transform and their Performance Compa...IJMER
Images may be worth a thousand words, but they generally occupy much more space in hard disk, or
bandwidth in a transmission system, than their proverbial counterpart. Compressing an image is significantly
different than compressing raw binary data. Of course, general purpose compression programs can be used to
compress images, but the result is less than optimal. This is because images have certain statistical properties
which can be exploited by encoders specifically designed for them. Also, some of the finer details in the image
can be sacrificed for the sake of saving a little more bandwidth or storage space. Compression is the process of
representing information in a compact form. Compression is a necessary and essential method for creating
image files with manageable and transmittable sizes. The data compression schemes can be divided into
lossless and lossy compression. In lossless compression, reconstructed image is exactly same as compressed
image. In lossy image compression, high compression ratio is achieved at the cost of some error in reconstructed
image. Lossy compression generally provides much higher compression than lossless compression.
Low Memory Low Complexity Image Compression Using HSSPIHT EncoderIJERA Editor
Due to the large requirement for memory and the high complexity of computation, JPEG2000 cannot be used in
many conditions especially in the memory constraint equipment. The line-based W avelet transform was
proposed and accepted because lower memory is required without affecting the result of W avelet transform, In
this paper, the improved lifting schem e is introduced to perform W avelet transform to replace Mallat method
that is used in the original line-based wavelet transform. In this a three-adder unit is adopted to realize lifting
scheme. It can perform wavelet transform with less computation and reduce memory than Mallat algorithm. The
corresponding HS_SPIHT coding is designed here so that the proposed algorithm is more suitable for
equipment. W e proposed a highly scale image compression scheme based on the Set Partitioning in
Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm. Our algorithm, called Highly Scalable SPIHT (HS_SPIHT), supports
High Compression efficiency, spatial and SNR scalability and provides l bit stream that can be easily adapted to
give bandwidth and resolution requirements by a simple transcoder (parse). The HS_SPIHT algorithm adds
the spatial scalability feature without sacrificing the S NR embeddedness property as found in the original
SPIHT bit stream. Highly scalable image compression scheme based on the SPIHT algorithm the proposed
algorithm used, highly scalable SPIHT (HS_SPIHT) Algorithm, adds the spatial scalability feature to the SPIHT
algorithm through the introduction of multiple resolution dependent lists and a resolution-dependent sorting
pass. SPIHT keeps the import features of the original SPIHT algorithm such as compression efficiency, full
SNR Scalability and low complexity.
Ijri ece-01-02 image enhancement aided denoising using dual tree complex wave...Ijripublishers Ijri
This paper presents a novel way to reduce noise introduced or exacerbated by image enhancement methods, in particular
algorithms based on the random spray sampling technique, but not only. According to the nature of sprays,
output images of spray-based methods tend to exhibit noise with unknown statistical distribution. To avoid inappropriate
assumptions on the statistical characteristics of noise, a different one is made. In fact, the non-enhanced image is
considered to be either free of noise or affected by non-perceivable levels of noise. Taking advantage of the higher sensitivity
of the human visual system to changes in brightness, the analysis can be limited to the luma channel of both the
non-enhanced and enhanced image. Also, given the importance of directional content in human vision, the analysis is
performed through the dual-tree complex wavelet transform , lanczos interpolator and edge preserving smoothing filters.
Unlike the discrete wavelet transform, the DTWCT allows for distinction of data directionality in the transform space.
For each level of the transform, the standard deviation of the non-enhanced image coefficients is computed across the
six orientations of the DTWCT, then it is normalized.
Keywords: dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTWCT), lanczos interpolator, edge preserving smoothing filters.

1. INTRODUCTION
With the increasing use of multimedia technologies, image compression requires higher
performance. To address needs and requirements of multimedia and internet applications, many
efficient image compression techniques, with considerably different features, have been
developed [1]. Traditionally, image compression adopts discrete cosine transform (DCT) in most
situations which possess the characteristics of simpleness and practicality. DCT has been applied
successfully in the standard of JPEG, MPEGZ, etc. However, the compression method that adopts
DCT has several shortcomings that become increasing apparent. One of these shortcomings is
obvious blocking artifact and bad subjective quality when the images are restored by this method
at the high compression ratios [2]. In recent years, many studies have been made on wavelets. An
excellent overview of what wavelets have brought to the fields as diverse as biomedical
applications, wireless communications, computer graphics or turbulence. Image compression is
one of the most visible applications of wavelets. The rapid increase in the range and use of
electronic imaging justifies attention for systematic design of an image compression system and
for providing the image quality needed in different applications [3].
In recent times, much of the research activities in image coding have been focused on the DWT,
which has become a standard tool in image compression applications because of their data
reduction capability. In a wavelet compression system, the entire image is transformed and
compressed as a single data object rather than block by block as in a DCT-based compression
system [4]. It allows a uniform distribution of compression error across the entire image. DWT
offers adaptive spatial-frequency resolution (better spatial resolution at high frequencies and
better frequency resolution at low frequencies) that is well suited to the properties of an HVS. It

can provide better image quality than DCT, especially on a higher compression ratio [5].
Traditionally, Fourier transforms have been utilized for signal analysis & reconstruction.
However, Fourier transform does not include any local information about the original signal.
Therefore, Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT or Gabor transform) has been introduced, which
uniformly samples the time-frequency plane. Unlike the STFT which has a constant resolution at
d times and frequencies, the wavelet transform has a good time and poor frequency resolution at
high frequencies, and good frequency and poor time resolution at low frequencies [6]. In JPEG
2000, Discrete Wavelet Transform is used as a core technology to compress still images. It is
multi-resolution analysis and it decomposes images into wavelet coefficients and scaling
function. In Discrete Wavelet Transform, signal energy concentrates to specific wavelet
coefficients. This characteristic is useful for compressing images [7].The multiresolution nature
of the discrete wavelet transform is proven as a powerful tool to represent images decomposed
along the vertical and horizontal directions using the pyramidal multiresolution scheme. Discrete
wavelet transform helps to test different allocations using subband coding, assuming that details
at high resolution and diagonal directions are less visible to the human eye. By using an error
correction method that approximates the reconstructed coefficients quantization error, we
minimize distortion for a given compression rate at low computational cost. The main property of
DWT is that it includes neighbourhood information in the final result, thus avoiding the block
effect of DCT transform. It also has good localization and symmetric properties, which allow for
simple edge treatment, high-speed computation, and high quality compressed image [8]. The 2D
DWT has also gained popularity in the field of image and video coding, since it allows good
complexity-performance tradeoffs and outperforms the discrete cosine transform at very low bit
rates [9]. In general the wavelet transform requires much less hardware to implement than Fourier
methods, such as the DCT.
Because of the popularity of wavelets, it is imperative to explore hardware implementations.
Hardware concepts such as pipelining and distributed arithmetic may help achieve better
throughput [10]. Recent advances in FPGA technology not only provides significant increase in
the logic real estates, but also furnishes relatively significant amount of flexible internal RAM
modules. An efficient implementation of Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) in JPEG2000 is
designed with low memory and high pipeline architecture. The corresponding line-based FPGA
lifting scheme is put forward from hardware perspective [11]. So in this paper, an area efficient
design of 2D DWT Processor for image compression is designed and implemented on an FPGA
device.
2. DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM
The Discrete Wavelet Transform, which is based on sub-band coding, is found to yield a fast
computation of Wavelet Transform. It is easy to implement and reduces the computation time and
resources required. The discrete wavelet transform uses filter banks for the construction of the
multiresolution time-frequency plane. The Discrete Wavelet Transform analyzes the signal at
different frequency bands with different resolutions by decomposing the signal into an
approximation and detail information. The decomposition of the signal into different frequency
bands obtained by successive high pass g[n] and low pass h[n] filtering of the time domain signal.
The combination of high pass g[n] and low pass filter h[n] comprise a pair of analyzing filters.
The output of each filter contains half the frequency content, but an equal amount of samples as
the input signal. The two outputs together contain the same frequency content as the input signal;
however the amount of data is doubled. Therefore down sampling by a factor two, denoted by ↓
2, is applied to the outputs of the filters in the analysis bank.
Reconstruction of the original signal is possible using the synthesis filter bank. In the synthesis
bank the signals are up sampled (↑ 2) and passed through the filters g[n] and h[n]. The filters in

the synthesis bank are based on the filters in the analysis bank. Proper choice of the combination
of the analyzing filters and synthesizing filters will provide perfect reconstruction. Perfect
reconstruction is defined by the output which is generally an estimate of the input, being exactly
equal to the input applied. The decomposition process can be iterated with successive
approximations being decomposed in return, so that one signal is broken down into many lower-
resolution components. Decomposition can be performed as ones requirement.
The Two-Dimensional DWT (2D-DWT) is a multi level decomposition technique. It converts
images from spatial domain to frequency domain. One-level of wavelet decomposition produces
four filtered and sub-sampled images, referred to as sub bands. The subband image
decomposition using wavelet transform has a lot of advantages. Generally, it profits analysis for
non-stationary image signal and has high compression rate. And its transform field is represented
multiresolution like human's visual system so that can progressively transmit data in low
transmission rate line. DWT processes data on a variable time-frequency plane that matches
progressively the lower frequency components to coarser time resolutions and the high-frequency
components to finer time resolutions, thus achieving a multiresolution analysis. The Discrete
Wavelet Transform has become powerful tool in a wide range of applications including
image/video processing, numerical analysis and telecommunication. The advantage of DWT over
existing transforms, such as discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and DCT, is that the DWT
performs a multiresolution analysis of a signal with localization in both time and frequency
domain.
3. PROPOSED DESIGN
The block diagram of the proposed design is shown in figure 1. It consists of a DWT processor
and a pair of external dual-port memories. The two memories are initialized with the pixel values
of a gray scale image. In this proposed design, input is provided to the DWT processor by
importing an image from the workspace in Matlab. The DWT processor includes DWT filter,
memory controller and crossbars. The crossbars are used for interleaving the image pixels i.e. the
output of the high pass and low pass filter will be distributed alternatively to the two memory
banks.

The DWT filter is designed using discrete wavelet transform. The Discrete Wavelet Transform
can be implemented using high pass and low pass filters. The high pass and low pass filters are
designed using following transformations:

Transformations are performed on each pixel using these filters and this is done as per line basis
where lines are defined by start-of-line (sol) and end-of-line (eol). The high pass and low pass
filters decompose the image into detail and approximate information respectively. The detail
information is basically low scale, high frequency components of the image and it imparts
nuance. Whereas the approximate information is high scale, low frequency components of the
image and it impart the important part of the image. In the high pass and low pass filter, the new
inputs are accepted at one end before previously accepted inputs appear as outputs at the other
end. This process is known as pipelining which helps to enhance the speed of the processor. The
output of the H and L filters will be alternately distributed to the two memory banks. The data on
the ‘H’ outputs are delayed by 32 cycles relative to the ‘L’ outputs. Without this delay, the data
being written from the ‘H’ and the ‘L’ filters would always be trying to write to the same memory
bank. With the delay added, they end up always writing to opposite banks.
A memory controller performs the read and writes operation simultaneously. It does not account
for latency of getting data from memory or latency of the filter. The memory control signals are
all derived from two free-running counters. The reset holds the counts at zero until a start pulse
arrives. The bulk of control is determined on per phase basis from the master counter. The state
register defines the number of phases. The address logic is derived by recombination of bits from
the master counter for each phase. In fact, the read addresses are just the count value -- i.e. the
memory read for this phase is just a stride 1 loop through the whole memory bank. The write
addresses for this phase repeat each address twice.
Figure2. Memory Controller
The external memory bank where the write enable is asserted into variable selector block. The
variable selector extracts a subset of rows from the input and fed the output to P1 and P2. These
products P1 and P2 perform division and multiplication of its inputs and pass it through write
inserter. The write inserter passes first or third input based on the value of second input and
output is fed to the read section. This means one word is inserted to the specific address location
of external memory bank. And the read section picks up the appropriate word from the memory
vector. In case of overlapping of address, the read is done before the write changes the stored
word.

4. HARDWARE IMPLEMENTATION RESULTS
The proposed model has designed and simulated using Simulink and Xilinx System Generator
block sets. The simulated has been accomplished by using DWT filter in the proposed model. The
DWT filter uses high pass and low pass filter to decompose the image into its detail and
approximate information respectively. The decomposition of the image is shown in the figure 4.
Figure 4. Decomposition of the Image
The decomposition process can be iterated with successive approximations being decomposed
into many lower resolution components. This is also called as the wavelet decomposition tree.
The iteration of the decomposition process is shown in figure 5.

2D-DWT is applied on grayscale image which is shown in figure 6. It transforms an image into
sub-bands such that the wavelet coefficients in the lower level sub-bands typically contain more
energy than those in higher level sub-bands.

It can be accomplished by applying one-dimensional DWT filter in a separable manner. The first
stage of the DWT divides an image into four sub-bands by applying low-pass and high pass
filters. The first level of decomposition is consists of two steps. In the first step, each row of an
image is transformed using a 1D vertical analysis filter bank. The first step is shown in figure 7.
Figure 7. Each row replaced by 1DWT
In the second step of the first level of decomposition, each column of the transformed image is
again transformed using same filter bank horizontally. The second step is shown in figure 8. Thus
first level of decomposition produces four filtered and sub-sampled images.
Figure 8. Each row replaced by 1DWT
For the second level of decomposition, DWT further divides the lowest sub-band using the same
filtering method as above. The lowest sub-band has been decomposed into further four sub-bands.
Each row and column of the lowest sub-band has been replaced by 1D-DWT. The result of the
second level of decomposition has been shown in figure 9.
