Adaptive non separable vector lifting scheme for digital holographic data compression
Abstract
Holographic data plays a crucial role in the recent three dimensional imaging as well as microscopic applications. As a result, huge amounts of storage capacity will be involved for this kind of data. Therefore, it becomes necessary to develop efficient hologram compression schemes for storage and transmission purposes. In this paper, we focus on the shifted distance information, obtained by the phase shifting algorithm, where two sets of difference data need to be encoded. More precisely, a non separable vector lifting scheme is investigated in order to exploit the two-dimensional characteristics of the holographic contents. Simulations performed on different digital holograms have shown the effectiveness of the proposed method in terms of bitrate saving and quality of object
reconstruction.
