Abstract :
Two major classes of shape coding methods are reviewed, namely bitmap coding and contour coding, and in particular their scalable extensions. In addition to their absolute compression efficiency, we analyze their performance in the framework of a complete image/video coding scheme, and show that they bring complementary functionalities depending on the targeted application
