Abstract

Most digital cameras perform color demosaicing and compression sequentially to yield a color output. Recent reports indicate that the alternative compression-then-demosaicing approach outperforms the demosaicing-then- compression approach in terms of image quality and complexity. This paper presents a fast reversible Bayer image compression algorithm for thealternative approach. A statistic-based prediction is proposed to de-correlate the wavelet subband coefficients. By learning from experiences, the proposed predictor can improve its prediction performance adaptively. A contextbasedGolomb Rice code is then proposed to compress the subband residues. Simulation results show that, as compared with the existing lossless CFA image codingmethods, the proposed algorithm can achieve a low bitrate with lesser computation.
