Digital Holography Data Compression

Abstract

Digital holography processing is a research topic related to the development of novel visual immersive applications. The huge amount of information conveyed by a digital hologram and the different properties of holographic data with respect to conventional photographic data require a comprehension of the performances and limitations of current image and video standard techniques. This paper proposes an architecture for objective evaluation of the performances of the state-of-the-art compression techniques applied to digital holographic data.
