title: Size-limited filter banks for subband image compression.
abstract: A size-limited filter bank (SLFB) is a maximally decimated filter bank operating on a finite length (duration) input signal resulting in subband components whose total number of independent samples is equal to the number of input samples. A theoretical framework for the design, analysis, and implementation of such filter banks resulting from applying FIR separable filter banks to finite length signals is presented. The concept of maximizing theoretical coding gain (TCG) using optimal bit allocation is generalized for this special case. Using TCG, the relative merits of various different SLFBs are addressed.
