Abstract: A compression and decompression system in which a reversible wavelet filter are used to generates coefficients from input data, such as image data. The reversible wavelet filter is an efficient transform implemented with integer arithmetic that has exact reconstruction. The present invention uses the reversible wavelet filter in a lossless system (or lossy system) in which an embedded codestream is generated from the coefficients produced by the filter. An entropy coder performs entropy coding on the embedded codestream to produce the compressed data stream.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for decompressing and compressing data is described. The present invention provides an encoder for use in a compression system having a decoder for decoding information generated by the encoder. The encoder of the present invention includes a coder for producing codeword information in response to data. The encoder also includes a reorder unit that generates a coded data stream in response to the codeword information from the coder. The reorder unit comprises a run count reorder unit for arranging codewords into a decoding order and a bit pack unit to combine variable length codewords into fixed length interleaved words and to output the fixed length interleaved words in an order required by the decoder.

The present invention provides a system for decompressing a data stream having multiple codewords. The system includes an input channel that receives the data stream. The system also includes a decoder which decodes each bit of the data stream, wherein at least two of the codewords in the data stream are decoded at the same time, such that the data stream is decoded in parallel.

Abstract: A motion sensor is mounted within a camera, and measures motion data such as translation, rotation, and zoom. The motion data is then associated with the video frame data captured by the camera. In some embodiments, the motion data is used to remove jitter in the frame data due to camera movement, and in some embodiments, the motion data is used to remove global motion from frame data before compression. Since the motion data is kept with the video frame data, the motion data is available during decompression of the video frames.

Abstract: Various Huffman decoder architectures are presented. By these decoder architectures, more than one codeword in a stream of Huffman-coded data units may be decoded into more than one token in a single decoding operation on average. An efficient memory organization which is useful in many of these decoder architectures is also presented.
