An apparatus for inputting, compressing, memorizing and regenerating continually-changing tone pictures or color pictures, which allows us to store the image data by a small amount of memory, to output the regenerating picture in a short time and to enlarge the picture in any size with keeping its quality. The apparatus proceeds the inputting steps of reading-in a continually-changing picture, dividing the picture into a plurality of regions of the pixels having similar tones within a width 2W, reckoning an average tone of every region, producing an average-tone picture by painting every region with the average tone, extracting boundaries dividing neighboring regions artificially, seeking branch points and turning points on the boundaries, approximating the coordinates (x,y) of subboundaries terminated at the branch points or the turning points by single-variable spline functions by the biorthonormal function method till the errors become smaller than a critical value, memorizing coefficients of the approximation functions as boundary data, making a differential image by subtracting the average-tone image from the input image, approximating the differential tone image by two-variable spline functions by the biorthonormal method till the errors become smaller than a critical value, and memorizing the coefficients of the approximation functions. In the case of a color picture, the input picture is resolved into three or four primary color pictures.
