Introduction

This course aims to provide learners with a good understanding of the key concepts and technologies in multimedia compression and processing.  Learners will learn fundamental and key compression concepts and  techniques for different media including texts, images and videos.

This course is part of:

- Graduate Certificate in Signal and Media Processing
- FlexiMasters in Signal and Media Processing

At the end of the course, learners  are expected to have a good understanding of multimedia compression and processing, and be able to apply the concepts  and techniques learned to practical applications. Specifically, they will understand how different techniques such as transform coding, predictive  coding, vector quantization, and Discrete Cosine Transform are used in multimedia compression and processing applications.

Media fundamentals, characteristics of time-independent media (texts, images) and time-dependent media (audio and video), compression  techniques and standards for multimedia, image and video compression and processing, transform coding, predictive coding, vector quantization,  Discrete Cosine Transform.

For engineers who wish to upgrade their technical knowledge and skills  in the area of digital signal processing, which can be  used in the Infocomm industry to aid in compression and processing of  different media such as texts, images, and videos.
