Abstract

Some of the major objectives of the JPEG 2000 still image coding standard were compression and memory efficiency, lossy to lossless coding, support for continuous-tone to bi-level images, error resilience, and random access to regions of interest. This paper will provide readers with some insight on various features and functionalities supported by a baseline JPEG 2000-compliant codec. Three JPEG 2000 software implementations (Kakadu, JasPer, JJ2000) are compared with several other codecs, including JPEG, JBIG, JPEG-LS, MPEG-4 VTC and H.264 intra coding. This study can serve as a guideline for users to estimate the effectiveness of JPEG 2000 for various applications, and to select optimal parameters according to specific application requirements.
