<p>An image data reconstructing method and apparatus, adaptive to both progressive and sequential image buildup modes, reconstructs an orthogonally transformed image by dequantizing transform coefficients decoded from coded data of a continuous tone image, by causing the transform coefficients to have a common data structure through an attachment of a dummy signal representing a zero value DC element. The image data reconstructing method comprises a coded data decoding step, a common data structure onedimensional quantized transform coefficient creating step, a one-to-two dimensional quantized transform coefficient transforming step, a dequantization threshold storing step, and a two-dimensional quantized transform coefficient dequantizing step. The image data reconstructing apparatus comprises a dummy signal generator for generating such dummy signals and a selector for selecting the dummy signals.</p> |
