Abstract :
In image compression system, statistical and subjective redundancies are removed to achieve bitrate reduction. Statistical and frequency characterization of image is an important step for understanding how image compression systems work. Students specializing in image and video system engineering need to know why these characteristics are important in their field of interest and to understand the influence of these characteristics on image quality. Therefore, we have developed educational software, called ImAn - Image Analyser, that helps students to analyze statistical and frequency characteristics of images that will be presented in this paper.
