ABSTRACT:
To encode data representative of correlated images, a sequence of arrays of source image data is provided in which each array is representative of an image. Each array of source image data is partitioned into a plurality of source image-data blocks. For each sequence of source image-data blocks, at least one prototypical image-data block is derived from at least a portion of the source image data of the sequence. For each source image-data block, a translation coefficient and a number of scaling coefficients equal to the number of prototypical image-data blocks associated with the sequence are determined. A difference image-data block is formed for each source image-data block from elements of the source image-data block minus the associated translation coefficient minus the sum in turn of each associated scaling coefficient multiplied by elements of the corresponding prototypical image-data block. Each difference image-data block is subjected to an image-data compression procedure to form a set of data-compression-encoded difference image-data elements. Each set of data-compression-encoded difference image-data elements may be stored in digital storage in association with the scaling coefficients and the translation coefficient associated with the corresponding source image-data block.
