When I try combining channels for RGB compressed image, the Image coloring if "off" and somewhat "yellow-ish"

2 次查看(过去 30 天)
I am trying to use DCT image compression on an RGB image by applying DCT to each separate channel and then recombining the channels in my final image. However, when I run my code, the output image is not fully colored, and I don't understand why. This is what the image looks like when using Matlab's DCT functions
This is what the image looks like after implementing my DCT image compression:
The following is my code:
clear all; close all;
X_int = imread('wombat.jpg');
redChannel = X_int(:, :, 1);
greenChannel = X_int(:, :, 2);
blueChannel = X_int(:, :, 3);
N=8;
Z=256;
%DCT FOR RED CHANNEL
B=zeros(256,256);
for r=1:N:256
for c=1:N:256
B(r:r+N-1,c:c+N-1)=redChannel(r:r+N-1,c:c+N-1);
[m n] = size(B);
%CREATE DCT
DCT=zeros(n);
for i=1:m
for j=1:n
if i==1
DCT(i,j) = ((1/n)^(1/2));
else
DCT(i,j) = ((2/n)^(1/2))*cos((pi*(2*j-1)*(i-1))/(2*n));
end
end
end
%APPLY DCT
Y=DCT*B*DCT';
%Zero out sub-antidiagonal entries
p=.1;
for i=1:n
for j=1:n
if i+j>p*2*n
Y(i,j) = 0;
end
end
end
ImageR = DCT'*Y*DCT;
end
end
%DCT FOR GREEN CHANNEL
BG=zeros(256,256);
for r=1:N:256
for c=1:N:256
BG(r:r+N-1,c:c+N-1)=greenChannel(r:r+N-1,c:c+N-1);
[s l] = size(BG);
%CREATE DCT
DCT=zeros(l);
for i=1:s
for j=1:l
if i==1
DCT(i,j) = ((1/l)^(1/2));
else
DCT(i,j) = ((2/l)^(1/2))*cos((pi*(2*j-1)*(i-1))/(2*l));
end
end
end
%Apply DCT
YG=DCT*B*DCT';
%Zero out sub-antidiagonal entries
p=.1;
for i=1:n
for j=1:n
if i+j>p*2*n
YG(i,j) = 0;
end
end
end
ImageG = DCT'*YG*DCT;
end
end
%DCT FOR BLUE CHANNEL
BB = zeros(256,256);
for r=1:N:256
for c=1:N:256
BB(r:r+N-1,c:c+N-1)=blueChannel(r:r+N-1,c:c+N-1);
[q w] = size(BB);
%Function to return DCT matrix of any size
DCT=zeros(w);
for i=1:q
for j=1:w
if i==1
DCT(i,j) = ((1/w)^(1/2));
else
DCT(i,j) = ((2/w)^(1/2))*cos((pi*(2*j-1)*(i-1))/(2*w));
end
end
end
%Apply DCT
YB=DCT*BB*DCT';
%Zero out sub-antidiagonal entries
p=.1;
for i=1:n
for j=1:n
if i+j>p*2*n
YB(i,j) = 0;
end
end
end
ImageB = DCT'*YB*DCT;
end
end
%CONCATENATE THE 3 RGB CHANNELS
red = uint8(ImageR);
green = uint8(ImageG);
blue = uint8(ImageB);
Isvd = cat(3,red,green,blue);
figure
imshow(Isvd);
imwrite(Isvd,'my_output_image.jpg');

@Kayla Kloster: please do not keep adding the same question repeatedly. You can simply edit the question instead.

Your code contain 3 almost equal sections. Such redundancies are prone to bugs, because it is confusing to edit them. Prefer to use a loop over the 3 channels and call the same code section.
This confusing repeating of code sections decrease the readability and typos like this are almost invisible:
%DCT FOR GREEN CHANNEL
BG =zeros(256,256);
for r=1:N:256
for c=1:N:256
BG(r:r+N-1,c:c+N-1)=greenChannel(r:r+N-1,c:c+N-1);
...
%Apply DCT
YG=DCT*B*DCT';
% ^
You do not want "B" here, but BG.
The names for the different channels are not smart: B for red, BG for green, BB for blue.

Thanks so so much!! That was the issue. Yes I have noticed it have been extremely difficult to debug, so I will work on using a for loop instead of repeated sections.
