Evaluation of Progressive Compression Algorithms

This page provides details of our ongoing research into human recognition of objects and features in lossily compressed images. Here is a brief synopsis of the project.

Details of our procedure for evaluating progressive compression algorithms on the basis of recognition bit rates.
