The set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) algorithm is an efficient wavelet-based progressive image-compression technique, designed to minimize the mean-squared error (MSE) between the original and decoded imagery. However, the MSE-based distortion measure is not in general well correlated with image-recognition quality, especially at low bit rates. Specifically, low-amplitude wavelet coe...Show More
Rate-distortion analysis is applied to the problem of joint compression and classification. A Lagrangian distortion measure is used to consider both the Euclidean error in reconstructing the original data as well as the classification performance. The bound is calculated based on an alternating-minimization procedure, representing an extension of the Blahut-Arimoto algorithm. This rate-distortion ...Show More
