  • Abstract
    In this work, a mechanism contributing to the blocking artifacts of standard block based transform coding schemes is stated and a simple solution is proposed for reducing its effect. The proposed solution can be easily incorporated into the encoding algorithms of existing two dimensional (2-D) discrete cosine transform (DCT) based image and video coding standards (JPEG, MPEG-1 and 2, H-261, H-263) without the need for a modification in their bitstream syntax.
