Encyclopedia > Compression (functional analysis)

In functional analysis, the compression of a linear operator T on a Hilbert space to a subspace K is the operator

PTP

where P is the orthogonal projection onto K. This is a natural way to obtain an operator on K from an operator on the whole Hilbert space. If K is an invariant subspace for T, then the compression of T to K is the restricted operator K→K sending k to Tk.

Document Image Compression and Analysis (4776 words)
The initial breakthroughs in the compression of one-dimensional signals [109] were easily extended to the image domain by concatenating image rows or columns into a single stream.
As is well known, the performance of conventional compression algorithms (such as those based on transform coding [44], vector quantization [30], fractal compression [12], pattern matching and substitution [10, 64], and other approaches) depends on the types of images being compressed, and on their texture and content characteristics.
This paves the way for compression by packing the energy in the error stream, for lossy compression by terminating the error stream at an index calculated by the signal-to-noise ratio, and for progressive transmission by interleaving the error signals for a set of image marks based on their distance order [49].

In functional analysis, the spectrum of an operator is defined as the set of all its spectral values.
In functional analysis, the concept of the spectrum of an operator is a generalisation of the concept of eigenvalues, which is much more useful in the case of operators on infinite-dimensional spaces.
In factor analysis, the eigenvectors of a covariance matrix correspond to factors, and eigenvalues to factor loadings.
