Energy-Efficient and Portable Least Squares Prediction for Image Coding on a Mo...
Cordeiro, Pedro; Falcao, Gabriel; Domingues, Patrício; Rodrigues, Nuno; Faria, SergioLeast squares prediction is a technique used to foresee pixel values during image coding by finding the minimum square error of neighbouring pixels. It has shown considerable quality gains especially for complex images with high variations in pixel intensities. The drawback of this technique consists of high computational complexity, consuming the most significant part of processing time and resources available...
