Why Shape Coding? Asymptotic Analysis of the Entropy Rate for Digital Images

This paper focuses on the ultimate limit theory of image compression. It proves that for an image source, there exists a coding method with shapes that can achieve the entropy rate under a certain condition where the shape-pixel ratio in the encoder/decoder is <inline-formula><math xmlns=&q...
