New fast DCT algorithms based on Loeffler's factorization

This paper proposes a new 32-point fast discrete cosine transform (DCT) algorithm based on the Loeffler's 16-point transform. Fast integer realizations of 16-point and 32-point transforms are also provided based on the proposed transform. For the recent development of High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), simplified quanti-zation and de-quantization process are proposed. Three different forms of implementation with the essentially same performance, namely matrix multiplication, partial butterfly, and full factorization can be chosen accord-ing to the given platform. In terms of the number of multiplications required for the realization, our proposed full-factorization is 3~4 times faster than a partial butterfly, and about 10 times faster than direct matrix multiplication.
