Such commonplace use has been realized by decades of advances in visual signal compression. The design of effective, efficient compression and transmission strategies for visual signals may benefit from proper incorporation of human visual system (HVS) characteristics. This paper overviews psychophysics and engineering associated with the communication of visual signals. It presents a short history of advances in perceptual visual signal compression, and describes perceptual models and how they are embedded into systems for compression and transmission, both with and without current compression standards. 收起
