| Abstract | Nowadays, the demands for higher quality and flexibility in accessing compressed images has led to a gradual replacement of the ubiquitous JPEG standard by the recent JPEG2000 compression standard in various domains. Similar to other compression standards, this new algorithm tends to deteriorate some of the intrinsic geometrical features of the image. For example, the direction of the edges are not well conserved after compression. This papers shows that the optimization metric generally used in JPEG2000, the mean squared error (MSE), is responsible for the non-uniform deterioration of the shapes' angle. To address this problem, a general method of modifying the MSE into any other additive metric is presented and applied to the conservation of underlying shapes' directional information. This modification is handled in a way that does not change the intrinsic implementation and functionalities of any JPEG2000 encoder. This general method of balancing the shapes' deterioration builds on the definition of a directional metric and the computation of edge direction based on a modified Hough Transform, which allows to determine the shapes' slopes with an error of less than the degree, even with low PSNR pictures (up to 15dB). Finally, it is illustrated how our contribution increases the performance of the JPEG2000, when all singularities of an image must be conserved in spite of high compression rates. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
