ITU-T T.81 | ISO/IEC 1091
21、8-1. That is, legacy applications conforming to Rec. ITU-T T.81 | ISO/IEC 10918-1 will be able to reconstruct streams generated by an encoder conforming to this document, but will possibly not be able to reconstruct such streams in full dynamic range, full quality or other features defined in this d
22、ocument.The aim of this document is to provide a migration path for legacy applications to support coding of high-dynamic range images. Existing tools depending on the existing standards will continue to work, but will only be able to reconstruct a lossy and/or a low-dynamic range version of the ima
23、ge contained in the codestream. This document specifies a codestream, referred to as JPEG XT, which is designed primarily for storage and interchange of continuous-tone photographic content.This document specifies a coded codestream format for storage of continuous-tone high and low dynamic range ph
24、otographic content. JPEG XT Part 2 is a scalable image coding system supporting multiple component images in floating point. It is by itself an extension of the coding tools defined in ISO/IEC 18477-1; the codestream is composed in such a way that legacy applications conforming to Rec. ITU-T T.81 |
25、ISO/IEC 10918-1 are able to reconstruct a lower quality, low dynamic range, eight bits per sample version of the image.Today, the most widely used digital photography format, a minimal implementation of JPEG (specified in Rec. ITU-T T.81 | ISO/IEC 10918-1), uses a bit depth of 8; each of the three c
26、hannels that together compose an image pixel is represented by 8 bits, providing 256 representable values per channel. For more demanding applications, it is not uncommon to use a bit depth of 16 or higher, providing greater than 65 536 representable values to describe each channel within a pixel, r
27、esulting on over 2.8 1014representable colour values. In some less common scenarios, even greater bit depths are used.The most common photo and image formats use an 8-bit or 16-bit unsigned integer value to represent some function of the intensity of each colour channel. While it might be theoretica
28、lly possible to agree on one method for assigning specific numerical values to real world colours, doing so is not practical. Since any specific device has its own limited range for colour reproduction, the devices range may be a small portion of the agreed-upon universal colour range. As a result,
29、such an approach is an extremely inefficient use of the available numerical values, especially when using only 8 bits (or 256 unique values) per channel. To represent pixel values as efficiently as possible, devices use a numeric encoding optimized for their own range of possible colours or gamut.JP
30、EG XT is primarily designed to provide coded data containing high dynamic range and wide colour gamut content while simultaneously providing 8 bits per pixel low dynamic range images using tools defined in ISO/IEC 18477-1. The goal is to provide a backward compatible coding specification that allows
31、 legacy applications and existing toolchains to continue to operate on codestreams conforming to this this document.JPEG XT has been designed to be backward compatible to legacy applications while at the same time having a small coding complexity; JPEG XT uses, whenever possible, functional blocks o
32、f Rec. ITU-T T.81 | ISO/IEC 10918-1 to extend the functionality of the legacy JPEG Coding System. It is optimized for storage and transmission of high dynamic range and wide colour gamut 32 bit float images while also enabling low-complexity encoder and decoder implementations.
