Abstract :
We show a rate-distortion optimal way to threshold or drop the DCT coefficients of the JPEG and MPEG compression standards. Our optimal algorithm uses a fast dynamic programming recursive structure. The primary advantage of our approach lies in its complete compatibility with standard JPEG and MPEG decoders
