Abstract
Matched-Texture Coding is a novel image coder that utilizes the self-similarity of natural images that include textures, in order to achieve structurally lossless compression. The key to a high compression ratio is replacing large image blocks with previously encoded blocks with similar structure. Adjusting the lighting of the replaced block is critical for eliminating illumination artifacts and increasing the number of matches. We propose a new adaptive lighting correction method that is based on the Poisson equation with incomplete boundary conditions. In order to fully exploit the benefits of the adaptive Poisson lighting correction, we also propose modifications of the side-matching (SM) algorithm and structural texture similarity metric. We show that the resulting matched-texture algorithm achieves better coding performance.
