Publication number: 20060230091Abstract: The present invention provides a method of compressing image data. The method includes a step of transforming image data into data composed of frequency components. In the transforming step, a number of bits calculated for frequency components requiring relatively low calculation quality for a transforming process is reduced below a number of bits calculated for frequency components requiring relatively high calculation quality for the transforming process. The present invention increases calculation speed while suppressing the degradation of image quality.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2006Publication date: October 12, 2006Applicant: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Miyako Minobe
