  • Bijective BWT (7 Comments)

    David Scott has written a bijective BWT transform, which brings all the advantages of bijectiveness to BWT based compressors. Among other things, making BWT more suitable for compression-before-encryption and also give (slightly) better compression.

  • Asymmetric Binary System (113 Comments)

    Jarek Duda’s “Asymmetric Binary System” promises to be an alternate to arithmetic coding, having all the advantages, but being much simpler. Matt has coded a PAQ based compressor using ABS for back-end encoding. Update: Andrew Polar has written an alternate implementation of ABS.

DTS Partners to Bring DCI-Compliant Encoding Technologies for D-Cinema to Market

Posted by Sachin Garg on 13th October 2005 | Permanent Link

Although initially it seemed that JPEG2000 might get restricted only in the niche market, DTS announced that the company’s Cinema Division will develop and market DCI-compliant JPEG2000 encoding tools for Digital Cinema and Digital Intermediate applications developed in conjunction with Dr. Michael Marcellin, a leading expert in JPEG2000 coding technologies and a major contributor of technology to the JPEG2000 standard.

The partnering of DTS and Dr. Marcellin will focus on providing products and services designed to drive adoption of Digital Cinema and facilitate Digital Intermediate processes for generation of all types of digital content. Dr. Marcellin is co-author of the book “JPEG2000: Image Compression Fundamentals, Standards and Practice,” which serves as a graduate-level textbook on image compression fundamentals, and is the definitive reference on JPEG2000.
