ECE 735 - Data Compression

Credits: 3
Cross-Listed with IT 832

In-depth study of lossy data compression techniques based on vector quantization with application to speech, image, and video signals. Covers vector quantization of signal’s waveform and commonly used parametric statistical models such as the autoregressive model. Topics include scalar and predictive quantization, transform and entropy coding, and variations on basic vector quantization such as constrained vector and variable rate vector quantization.
