Verfahren zur Kompression digitaler Bilder

摘要

A method (400) of compressing a digital image including a matrix of elements each one consisting of a plurality of digital components of different type representing a pixel, the method comprising the steps of providing (410-430) an incomplete digital image wherein at least one component is missing in each element, obtaining (433-435) the digital image from the incomplete digital image, splitting (455) the digital image into blocks and calculating, for each block, a group of DCT coefficients for the components of each type, and quantizing (460-465) the DCT coefficients of each group using a corresponding quantization table scaled by a gain factor; the method further comprises the steps of determining (440) at least one energy measure of the incomplete digital image and estimating (445-450) the gain factor as a function of the at least one energy measure, the function being determined experimentally according to a target compression factor. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
