ABSTRACT:
In an Hadamard transform coefficient predictor for 8-point and/or 8.times.8-point Hadamard transform, when the transform coefficients of one-dimensional 8-point Hadamard transform are represented by y(0), y(1), . . . , y(7) from the lowest order, y(1) is multiplied by 1/2 and output as a prediction value of y(3), y(2) is multiplied by 1/4 and output as a prediction value of y(4), y(2) is multiplied by 1/2 and output as a prediction value of y(6), and y(1) is multiplied by 1/4 and output as a prediction value of y(7). Alternatively, when a and b represent real numbers which are above zero and below 1, the multiplication value of y(2) and b/2 and the multiplication value of y(4) and (2-2b) are added to each other, and the addition result is output as a prediction value of y(6). Further, the multiplication value of y(1) and a/4 and the multiplication value of y(3) and (1-a)/2 are added and the addition result is output as a prediction value of y(7). The same construction is also applicable for the two-dimensional 8.times.8 Hadamard transform.
