Abstract
A method inverse discrete wavelet transforms subband data in segments and maintains a state between segments. The method selects one of a plurality of different computational procedures for performing the inverse DWT by testing the state and the subset of the current segment of subband data to determine if a current segment can be inverse transformed with a reduced computation procedure. If the test is positive the method performs the inverse DWT using the reduced computation procedure; otherwise the method performs the inverse DWT of the segment using another procedure.
