Title: Hsu-Tung Chen and Color-Image Compression
Introduction
Hsu-Tung Chen is an inventor based in Taipei, Taiwan. His work includes a patented method for compressing and reconstructing color images.
Latest Patents
Chen is associated with 1 patent, titled “Methods for Compressing and Re-constructing a Color Image in a Computer.” The invention presents visual block pattern truncation coding (VBPTC), which uses conventional block truncation coding to encode an image. It identifies edge blocks based on human visual perception: when the difference between two quantized values in a block exceeds a visually defined threshold, the block is classified as an edge block. The bitmap in an edge block is then used to calculate the block’s gradient orientation and match its pattern.
Career Highlights
Chen is associated with the National Science Council. His patent focuses on applying visual characteristics to image compression and reconstruction.
Collaborations
Chen’s listed coworkers include Liang-Gee Chen and Yung-Pin Lee.
Conclusion
Hsu-Tung Chen’s patented VBPTC method combines block-based image coding with visual edge detection to support color-image compression and reconstruction.
