  • Patent number: 7433530
    Abstract: A method for the scaling of data is provided. An exemplary use of the disclosed embodiments involves the scaling up in size or the scaling down in size of computer images. n-dimensional transformed data representing some original n-dimensional real data is received. An m-dimensional inverse transform on the n-dimensional transformed data is performed to produce hybrid data, where 1?m<n. The hybrid data is scaled in p dimensions to produce scaled hybrid data representing a desired p-dimensional change in the n-dimensional real data where p?m. Finally, an m-dimensional forward transform is performed on the scaled hybrid data to produce n-dimensional scaled transformed data.
