Blocking artifact free inverse discrete cosine transform

Abstract

This paper presents the generalized lapped biorthogonal transform embedded inverse discrete cosine transform (ge-IDCT) as an alternative to the IDCT. The ge-IDCT with nonlinear weighting in the embedded transform domain can reconstruct the signal with alleviated blockishness. Additional complexity, imposed by the replacement, is trivial thanks taThis paper presents the generalized lapped biorthogonal transform embedded inverse discrete cosine transform (ge-IDCT) as an alternative to the IDCT. The ge-IDCT with nonlinear weighting in the embedded transform domain can reconstruct the signal with alleviated blockishness. Additional complexity, imposed by the replacement, is trivial thanks to an efficient lattice structure.
