8. EUROCON 2009, May 21, Saint-Peterburg JPEG vs JPEG2000 Comparison (Classical) JPEG 2000 delivers about 20% better compression than JPEG. And, at more extreme compression ratios, JPEG 2000 delivers significantly better quality. Another key benefit of JPEG 2000 is that it supports both lossless and lossy compression in a single codec – a very desirable feature in certain applications such as medical imaging.

10. EUROCON 2009, May 21, Saint-Peterburg Motion JPEG2000 Standard for Digital Cinema In Motion JPEG 2000 each frame is coded individually. Intra-frame coding allows for random access and reduced complexity. In MPEG the encoding uses a series of frames – inter-frame coding. This allows for improved compression efficiency but the coding technique is more complex.

26. EUROCON 2009, May 21, Saint-Peterburg Conclusions NIQE2000 criteria can be successfully used for quality assessment of images compressed with JPEG2000 algorithm. The correlations between NIQE2000 and MOS is close to PSNR-MOS, but NIQE2000 is no-reference estimation with very important for practical tasks. Another no-reference quality assessment algorithms for JPEG2000 can be done by estimation ringing and blurring artifacts separately and after combining them to the new quality metrics.
