Abstract:
A computer implemented method for hybrid domain processing of a multi-dimensional transformed image comprising the steps of:receiving an n-dimensional orthornormally transformed image representing some original n-dimensional real image; performing an m-dimensional inverse transform on the n-dimensional orthornormally transformed image to produce â€œhybridâ€  data, where 1&lE;mmanipulating the â€œhybridâ€  data to effect a desired at most m-dimensional change in the n-dimensional real image; applying an m-dimensional forward transform to the manipulated â€œhybridâ€  data to return the â€œhybridâ€  data to n-dimensional transform space as a processed n-dimensional orthornormally transformed image; and outputting the processed n-dimensional orthornormally transformed image to an output device which generates an output n-dimensional real image representation of the process n-dimensional orthornormally transformed image.
