The method for compressing the image comprises the steps of mapping a pixel value of a first length of the current pixel to a pixel value of a second length; a pixel value of a second length of a previous pixel is subtracted from the pixel value of the second length of the current pixel to obtain a pixel difference value of the current pixel and the previous pixel, and acquiring the lengthening coding length corresponding to the pixel difference value under the condition of carrying out lengthening coding on the pixel difference value; and selecting to carry out fixed length coding on the pixel value of the second length of the current pixel directly if the lengthening coding length corresponding to the pixel difference value is greater than the fixed length coding length corresponding to the current pixel under the condition of carrying out lengthening coding on the pixel value of the second length of the current pixel, and if not, selecting to carry out lengthening coding on the pixel difference value.

Description

Method for compressing image and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to image processing field, relates more specifically to a kind of method for compressing image and device.
Background technology
The definition more and more higher of digital video and digital picture, and the frame per second of digital video is also constantly increasing, from And cause the size of the processing data in digital video/picture system to become increasing.Digital video/picture system must be located Reason mass data, so required memory-size and bandwidth are all increased.
Between functional module and memory module in digital video/picture system or in digital video/image system Embedded voice compression codecs is inserted between functional module and external memory storage in system for reduction memory-size and storage Device bandwidth is highly useful.In the case where embedded voice compression codecs is inserted, initial data be transferred to memorizer it Front elder generation is compressed, and then compressed data is first decompressed before processed resume module.
Typically, there are two kinds of method for compressing image:Lossy compression method and lossless compress.In order to reduce document size, pressure is damaged Contracting has clipped some view data so as to sacrifice some picture qualities.Conversely, lossless compress has been fully retained original image Content, and reduce document size by only removing the data bit of the complete reproduction for being used for original image.Lossy compression method It is generally possible to the higher compression ratio of producing ratio lossless compress.In the appropriate compress technique of selection and compression ratio, user must examine The factors such as specific image, desired picture quality and transmission time and the memory requirement that worry will be compressed.In order to reduce biography The defeated time and/or memory requirement will be reduced, user would generally select higher compression ratio, but higher compression ratio will be led Cause the reduction of picture quality.
The content of the invention
In view of problem above, the invention provides one kind can be with higher on the basis of visual picture quality is ensured Compression ratio method for compressing image that image is compressed and device.
Method for compressing image according to embodiments of the present invention, including:The pixel value of the first length of current pixel is mapped For the pixel value of the second length;By the pixel value phase of the pixel value of the second length of current pixel and the second length of previous pixel Subtract to obtain the pixel value difference of current pixel and previous pixel, and obtain in the feelings that variable-length encoding is carried out to the pixel value difference Variable-length encoding length corresponding with the pixel value difference under condition;If the variable-length encoding length corresponding with the pixel value difference The fixed length corresponding with current pixel in the case of more than block code is carried out in the pixel value of the second length to current pixel Code length, then selecting the pixel value of the second length directly to current pixel carries out block code, otherwise selects to the picture Plain difference carries out variable-length encoding.
Image compressing device according to embodiments of the present invention, including:Data mapping unit, for by the first of current pixel The pixel value of length is mapped as the pixel value of the second length;Differential coding unit, for by the picture of the second length of current pixel Plain value is subtracted each other to obtain the pixel value difference of current pixel and previous pixel with the pixel value of the second length of previous pixel, and is obtained Being taken at carries out corresponding with pixel value difference variable-length encoding length in the case of variable-length encoding to the pixel value difference;And Mode selecting unit, if be more than in second to current pixel for the variable-length encoding length corresponding with the pixel value difference The pixel value of length carries out corresponding with current pixel block code length in the case of block code, then select directly to working as The pixel value of the second length of preceding pixel carries out block code, otherwise selects to carry out variable-length encoding to the pixel value difference.
By image compressing device and method according to embodiments of the present invention, it is possible to reduce the transmission time of image and/or Memory requirement is reduced, and is not result in the reduction of the visual quality of image.
