The study aimed at determining the learning styles of students pursuing master's degree programmes in engineering. Index of Learning Style was administered to 175 students. The findings reveal that there exist differences in learning styles of students pursuing master's degree in computer science and engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering, electronics and communication engineering and mechanical engineering. Majority of the students of various branches except of mechanical engineering prefer active, sensing, visual and sequential learning styles but very few of them have strong preference for a particular learning style.Keywords

In this paper, a modified JPEG2000 still image compression system has been proposed. A three level decomposition of Daubechies 9/7 Discrete Wavelet Transformation has been first applied to the entire input image. Then, scalar quantization is used to decrease and round off the transformed coefficients. The quantized coefficients are then subjected to bit modeling in each bit plane. A joint probability statistical model based significance selection has been proposed to select the significant bit for entropy coding with two scan coding technique. In this proposed work, after selecting all the significant bits in a particular bit plane, a geometrically distributed set of context is modeled and subjected to encode with Golomb-Rice coding to give compressed data. The decompression is effected with a simple, respective inverse operation. The proposed system has been experimented with standard benchmark images and the standard performance measures, Compression Ratio and Peak-Signal to Noise Ratio are used to evaluate the result.Keywords

In this paper, we present a simple and effective approach for measurement of blocking artifact with optimal 2-D step function. First, a simple edge detection technique is designed for the measurement of blocking artifacts. Based on the visibility of blocking artifact in the edge image, optimal 2-D step function is chosen. In frequency domain, blocking artifact reduction algorithm is designed to extract all the parameters needed to detect the presence of blocking artifacts and replace optimal step function with ramp function by changing the coefficient of first row of horizontal blocks with the coefficient of shifted block. The proposed technique is experimented on various standard benchmark images and found to have improvement in the perceptual quality of the JPEG compressed images after removal of blocking artifact with the proposed method.Keywords
