Tues. 6:00 - 7:45 p.m., J. Baskin Engr. 156
Instructor: Prof. Glen Langdon, Computer Engineering
Current Topic: JPEG Image Compression and Transform Coding
Prerequisite: Graduate Student admitted to the graduate program of the School of Engineering. Students must attend first day of class. To sign up for the JPEG course, choose Call No. 93816 for CMPE 265A.
Introduces linear algebra (vectors and matrices), presents the notion of a forward transform that converts spatial image intensities to spatial-frequency data. Quantization of transformed coefficients according to the spatial frequencies. The inverse transform converts the spatial frequency data back to image intensity values. Description of the JPEG international standard for still image compression.
(2 credits)
Thurs. 6:00 - 7:45 p.m., J. Baskin Engr. 156
Instructor: Prof Glen Langdon, Computer Engineering
Topic: The MPEG algorithm for digital motion picture compression.
Prerequisite: Graduate Student admitted to the graduate program of the School of Engineering. Others require special permission. Students must attend the first day of class, and sign the roster that is passed around.
Text: Course readers are available at the copy center.
To sign up for the MPEG course, choose Call No. 97406 for CMPE 265B which will be the MPEG course on Thursdays. However, CMPE 265B is taught in the final 4 weeks of the quarter. The JPEG course CMPE 265A is taught the first 6 weeks of the quarter.
The course primarily focuses on MPEG-1, the first motion picture standard created under the International Standards Organization. Topics include the MPEG overview, vocabulary, review of DCT use, motion estimation, motion compensation, and MPEG coding principles.
See Fall Schedule of Classes, p. 92, for CMPE 265B, Call No. 97406, for a 2-credit MPEG course. It is taught the final four weeks of the quarter. Together the courses count for one breadth course in the 26x CE/CS series (graphics and images). A course reader plus class handouts constitute the teaching materials.
The CMPE 265A/B courses meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 6 - 7:45 p.m., J. Baskin Engr. 156.
