Abstract: This invention solves problems due to employing error degraded data in digital processing. It particularly solves multi-generation problems wherein transform data degrade during each inverse transform and forward transform cycle even without any processing due to the rounding and clipping errors. It provides methods, systems and devices for reduced-error processing of transform-coded data. After inverse transformation of transform data, high-precision numbers are manipulated. The converting to integers and clipping to an allowed range steps are executed at any stage in the manipulation to obtain integer representation of the inverse transformed data such as for displaying of the data. However, further processing including forward transforming back to the transform domain is executed on the high-precision numbers. Thus, the rounding and clipping errors are not present in the processed data.

It provides methods, systems and devices for reduced-error processing of transform-coded data. After inverse transformation of transform data, high-precision numbers are converted to integers and clipped to an allowed range forming converted data. High-precision differences are obtained by subtracting the high-precision output of the inverse transform from the converted data. The converted data can be manipulated and sent to output devices which expect integer data. Processed high-precision numbers are formed by adding the high-precision differences to the processed converted data. Thus, the rounding and clipping errors are greatly reduced in the processed high-precision numbers.

Abstract: This invention solves problems due to employing error degraded data in digital processing. It particularly solves the multi-generation problem wherein transform data degrade during each inverse transform and forward transform cycle even without any processing due to the rounding and clipping errors. It provides methods, systems and apparatus for transform-domain correction of real-domain errors in the processing of transform, transform-coded, and coded data. After inverse transformation of transform data the high-precision numbers are converted to integers and clipped to an allowed range forming converted data. High-precision differences are obtained by subtracting converted data from the high-precision output of the inverse transform. The differences are re-transformed back to the transform domain and saved. In an alternate embodiment the differences are quantized, thus, only significant errors are saved. In still another embodiment the quantized differences are entropy encoded.
