Progressive wavelet image coding based on a conditional probability model

Abstract
We present a wavelet image coder based on an explicit model of the conditional statistical relationships between coefficients in different subbands. In particular, we construct a parameterized model for the conditional probability of a coefficient given coefficients at a coarser scale. Subband coefficients are encoded one bitplane at a time using a non-adaptive arithmetic encoder. The overall ordering of bitplanes is determined by the ratio of their encoded variance to compressed size. We show...
