Compression of hyperspectral images onboard of spacecrafts is a tradeoff between the limited computational resources and the ever-growing spatial and spectral resolution of the optical instruments. As such, it requires low-complexity algorithms with good rate-distortion performance and high throughput. In recent years, the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) has focused on lossless and near-lossless compression approaches based on predictive coding, resulting in the recently published CCSDS 123.0-B-2 recommended standard. While the in-loop reconstruction of quantized prediction residuals provides excellent rate-distortion performance for the near-lossless operating mode, it significantly constrains the achievable throughput due to data dependencies. In this paper, we study the performance of a faster method based on the prequantization of the image followed by a lossless predictive compressor. While this is well known to be suboptimal, one can exploit powerful signal models to reconstruct the image at the ground segment, recovering part of the suboptimality. In particular, we show that convolutional neural networks can be used for this task and that they can recover the whole SNR drop incurred at a bit rate of 2 bits per pixel. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recent advent of graph signal processing (GSP) has spurred intensive studies of signals that live naturally on irregular data kernels described by graphs (e.g., social networks, wireless sensor networks). Though a digital image contains pixels that reside on a regularly sampled 2-D grid, if one can design an appropriate underlying graph connecting pixels with weights that reflect the image structure, then one can interpret the image (or image patch) as a signal on a graph, and apply GSP tools for processing and analysis of the signal in graph spectral domain. In this paper, we overview recent graph spectral techniques in GSP specifically for image/video processing. The topics covered include image compression, image restoration, image filtering, and image segmentation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Predictive lossy compression has been shown to represent a very flexible framework for lossless and lossy onboard compression of multispectral and hyperspectral images with quality and rate control. In this paper, we improve predictive lossy compression in several ways, using a standard issued by the Consultative Committee on Space Data Systems, namely CCSDS-123, as an example of application. First, exploiting the flexibility in the error control process, we propose a constant-signal-to-noise-ratio algorithm that bounds the maximum relative error between each pixel of the reconstructed image and the corresponding pixel of the original image. This is very useful to avoid low-energy areas of the image being affected by large errors. Second, we propose a new rate control algorithm that has very low complexity and provides performance equal to or better than existing work. Third, we investigate several entropy coding schemes that can speed up the hardware implementation of the algorithm and, at the same time, improve coding efficiency. These advances make predictive lossy compression an extremely appealing framework for onboard systems due to its simplicity, flexibility, and coding efficiency. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Compressed sensing (CS) is a fast and efficient way to obtain compact signal representations. Oftentimes, one wishes to extract some information from the available compressed signal. Since CS signal recovery is typically expensive from a computational point of view, it is inconvenient to first recover the signal and then extract the information. A much more effective approach consists in estimating the information directly from the signal’s linear measurements. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for compressive estimation of autoregressive (AR) process parameters based on $ad~hoc$ sensing matrix construction. More in detail, we introduce a compressive least square estimator for AR(p) parameters and a specific AR(1) compressive Bayesian estimator. We exploit the proposed techniques to address two important practical problems. The first is compressive covariance estimation for Toeplitz structured covariance matrices where we tackle the problem with a novel parametric approach based on the estimated AR parameters. The second is a block-based compressive imaging system, where we introduce an algorithm that adaptively calculates the number of measurements to be acquired for each block from a set of initial measurements based on its degree of compressibility. We show that the proposed techniques outperform the state-of-the-art methods for these two problems. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Predictive coding is attractive for compression on board of spacecraft due to its low computational complexity, modest memory requirements, and the ability to accurately control quality on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Traditionally, predictive compression focused on the lossless and near-lossless modes of operation, where the maximum error can be bounded but the rate of the compressed image is variable. Rate control is considered a challenging problem for predictive encoders due to the dependencies between quantization and prediction in the feedback loop and the lack of a signal representation that packs the signal's energy into few coefficients. In this paper, we show that it is possible to design a rate control scheme intended for onboard implementation. In particular, we propose a general framework to select quantizers in each spatial and spectral region of an image to achieve the desired target rate while minimizing distortion. The rate control algorithm allows achieving lossy near-lossless compression and any in-between type of compression, e.g., lossy compression with a near-lossless constraint. While this framework is independent of the specific predictor used, in order to show its performance, in this paper, we tailor it to the predictor adopted by the CCSDS-123 lossless compression standard, obtaining an extension that allows performing lossless, near-lossless, and lossy compression in a single package. We show that the rate controller has excellent performance in terms of accuracy in the output rate, rate-distortion characteristics, and is extremely competitive with respect to state-of-the-art transform coding.
