Title:
IMAGE FEATURE EXTRACTING METHOD, AND IMAGE COMPRESSING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/015799
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is an image feature extracting method capable of realizing an always more beautiful compression than that of JPEG at a common compression ratio. The image feature extracting method comprises the step of transforming a given image into a multi-divided image by subjecting the given image to at least one k2-dividing operation. This k2-dividing operation includes the step (a) of creating a matrix (T) on the basis of an image matrix (X), the step (b) of calculating a singular value of the matrix (T), the step (c) of deciding whether or not minj|σj - σj-1| > ε holds, the step (d) of returning, in case the decision result of the step (c) is "No", to the step (c) after the operation to calculate the singular value of an expanded matrix Tα was performed, the step (e) of determining the value (U) of T = USVT in case the decision result of the step (c) is "Yes", the step (f) of determining a matrix (T1 = UTT), and the step (g) of creating an image matrix (X1) on the basis of a matrix (T1).
