fft - why DCT transform is preferred over other transforms in video/image compression -
i went through how dct (discrete cosine transform) used in image , video compression standards.
but why dct preferred on other transforms dft or dst?
because cos(0)
1, first (0th) coefficient of dct-ii mean of values being transformed. makes first coefficient of each 8x8 block represent average tone of constituent pixels, start. subsequent coefficients add increasing levels of detail, starting sweeping gradients , continuing increasingly fiddly patterns, , happens first few coefficients capture of signal in photographic images.
sin(0)
0, dsts start offset of 0.5 or 1, , first coefficient gentle mound rather flat plain. unlikely suit ordinary images, , result dsts require more coefficients dcts encode blocks.
the dct happens suit. there it.
