Provided is an image processing apparatus which includes a histogram generating unit that generates a histogram representing an appearance frequency distribution of a pixel value of an input image, and a quantization table generating unit that generates a quantization table including table information used to perform transform of a bit depth of the pixel value of the input image and table information used to allocate an effective pixel in which an appearance frequency in the histogram generated by the histogram generating unit is not zero to an index value after bit depth transform so that effective pixels are allocated to index values as equally as possible.

In an image synthesizer (1), code stream analyzers (10, 11), code block extraction units (12, 13) and EBCOT decoders (14, 15) work together to decode encoded code streams (D10, D11) encoded according to the MPEG-2000 Standard and generate quantization coefficients (D16, D17) for each code block. In a cross-fading unit (16), multipliers (17, 18) multiply the quantization coefficients (D16, D17) by coefficients (α(t), (1−α(t))) and an adder (19) adds together the results of multiplication to provide a cross-fading quantization coefficient (D20). An EBCOT encoder (20), rate controller (21) and code stream generator (22) work together to encode the cross-fading quantization coefficient (D20) to provide a final encoded code stream (D23). Therefore, the image synthesizer (1) can combine two encoded code streams easily and effectively with a reduced use of a memory capacity.

An encoded code stream is searched for a frame generally coincident with a specific frame without having to decoding the frame to its original image. The present invention provides an image search device that searches an object encoded code stream formed by compression coding of a plurality of frames for a frame generally coincident with a specific one, which includes a decoder for making entropy decoding of the object encoded code stream to generate quantization coefficients of each frame, a matching unit for making matching between the quantization coefficients of the specific frame and those of each frame which are generated by the decoder and correspond in sample position to those of the specific frame, and a judging unit for judging, based on the result of matching, whether the frame is generally coincident with the specific one.

A wavelet inverse transform method includes a decoding object coefficient extracting step of extracting only coefficients necessary for decoding a specified area from wavelet transform coefficients, and a wavelet inverse transform step of inverse transforming coefficients extracted from the decoding object coefficient extracting step. The decoding object coefficient extracting step extracts transform coefficients not only inside the specified area but also those outside the specified area. This enables only an optional partial picture to be decoded without decoding the entire picture. A corresponding wavelet inverse transform device is also disclosed.

An image signal encoded for compression using a wavelet transform as a transform system is to be decoded at a resolution corresponding to an optional rational number. To this end, the wavelet decoding device includes an entropy decoding unit 1 for entropy decoding an encoded bitstream 100, a dequantizing unit for dequantizing the quantized coefficients 101 to transmit transform coefficients 102, a transform coefficient back-scanning unit 3 for scanning the transform coefficients 102 in a pre-set fashion to re-array the transform coefficients, and an inverse wavelet transform unit 4 for inverse transforming the re-arrayed transformation coefficients 103 to furnish a decoded image 104. The inverse wavelet transform unit 4 adaptively constitutes an upsampler, a downsampler and a synthesis filter in dependence upon a pre-set resolution conversion factor.

There is provided an image processing apparatus including a zero class detecting unit that detects a zero class in which an appearance frequency of a pixel value is zero from among a plurality of classes into which pixel values of an image are classified according to pixel value magnitude, and a non-zero class converting unit that converts the zero class into a non-zero class in which the appearance frequency of the pixel value is one or more, without updating a total number of the classes, by updating a range of the zero class detected by the zero class detecting unit. The present disclosure can be applied to an image processing apparatus.
