Review on Conversion of Various Block Sizes in Compressed Domain using DCT

Abstract

Image transforms are extensively used in image processing and image analysis. Transform is basically a mathematical tool, which allows us to move from one domain to another domain. Transforms play a significant role in various image processing applications such as image analysis, image enhancement, image filtering and image compression. Nowadays, almost all digital images are stored in compressed format in order to save the computational cost and memory. To save the memory cost, all the image processing techniques like feature extraction, image indexing and watermarking techniques are applied in the compressed domain itself rather than in spatial domain. In this paper, composition of a block from all of its sub-blocks and vice versa ,directly in DCT domain is obtained and showed that the result of both operations are same and the computational complexity of the proposed algorithm is lower than that of the existing ones.
