Abstract
A method for encoding digital images or video streams, includes a receiving phase, wherein a portion of an image is received; a graph weights prediction phase, wherein the elements of a weights matrix associated to the graph related to the blocks of the image (predicted blocks) are predicted on the basis of reconstructed, de-quantized and inverse-transformed pixel values of at least one previously coded block (predictor block) of the image, the weights matrix being a matrix comprising elements denoting the level of similarity between a pair of pixels composing said image, a graph transform computation phase, wherein the graph Fourier transform of the blocks of the image is performed, obtaining for the blocks a set of coefficients determined on the basis of the predicted weights; a coefficients quantization phase, wherein the coefficients are quantized an output phase wherein a bitstream comprising the transformed and quantized coefficients is transmitted and/or stored.
