ABSTRACT:
A system, medium, and method encoding and/or decoding image data. The image data encoding may include a transformer transforming pixel values of an image in the time domain to pixel values in the frequency domain, a quantization coefficient determiner determining a quantization coefficient corresponding to the number of bits per pixel of the image by adjusting a quantization variable defined by a user, a quantization unit quantizing the pixel values transformed by the transformer based on the quantization coefficient determined by the quantization coefficient determiner, and an entropy encoder generating a bitstream of the quantized pixel values.
