TDLT

This page holds the results of Time Domain Lapped Transform (TDLT) optimization problems looking for integer transform coefficients that provide optimal coding gain. Wherever possible the assumptions are stated. Later we should include testing against actual image data to verify the results (see test data here).

The coding gain objective used as the objective is taken from slide 13 of Tim's presentation An Introduction to Video Coding

The free parameters are initially just the coefficients p_0,...,p_m,q_0,...,q_m where m=(n/2)-1. We limit these to being dyadic rationals, e.g., x/2^d with d=6, between [-1,1].

Given p's and q's and assuming a linear ramp constrains the s's.
