摘要：The mean-removed vector quantization (MRVQ) scheme achieves good reconstructed image quality, but it requires a high number of bit rates. In this paper, we propose an improved MRVQ scheme. The compressed codes of MRVQ for an image block contain the block mean and the index recording the closest residual vector in the codebook. In the proposed scheme, the block mean values are encoded by the linear prediction technique followed by the Huffman coding technique. The MRVQ indices of the residual vectors are further compressed by the Huffman coding technique. From the experimental results, it is shown that a great deal of bit rate reduction is achieved by using the proposed scheme with acceptable image quality loss.
