Hyperspectral image compression using entropy-constrained predictive trellis coded quantization

A training-sequence-based entropy-constrained predictive trellis coded quantization (ECPTCQ) scheme is presented for encoding autoregressive sources. For encoding a first-order Gauss–Markov source, the mean squared error (MSE) performance of an eight-state ECPTCQ system exceeds that of entropyconstrained differential pulse code modulation (ECDPCM) by up to 1.0 dB. In addition, a hyperspectral image compression system is developed, which utilizes ECPTCQ. A hyperspectral image sequence compressed at 0.125 b/pixel/band retains an average peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of greater than 43 dB over the spectral bands.
