Abstract
In an apparatus and method for image/video enhancement, pre-processing and post-processing techniques are employed to effectively modify the transforms used in a fixed, standardized data compression coder. In this manner, alternative transforms, for example overlapping-basis-type transforms, are made to be applicable to, and compatible with, various data compression standards, thereby improving system performance.
