About the course

Aim

The course explains the principles behind modern techniques for communicating images and sound. Having fulfilled the course, the student has learned to analyze the performance of predictive and transform-based methods and is also able to explain the design criterias behind methods such as JPEG, MPEG for images and MP3, AAC for audio.

Content

Statistical signal models and Entropy. Lossless coding. Performance bounds when coding analogue signals. Sampling and quantisation. PCM, predictive coding, transform coding, wavelet coding. LPC, CELP and model-based coding. Standardised methods for pictures and sound (JPEG, MPEG, MP3, AAC). Video distribution over networks.
