Method for processing transform coefficients

The invention relates to a method for processing a set of transform coefficients, a software product, a digital camera and an other image processing system. The method includes comprises steps of for each transform coefficient block representing an image, sorting the coefficients of the block into a sequence; encoding the sorted coefficients to generate a sequence of codewords, with each codeword including one or more coding coefficients; and dividing the codeword sequence into two or more subsequences. 本发明涉及对一组变换系数进行处理的方法、软件产品、数码相机和其他图像处理系统。该方法包括针对表示图像的每个变换系数块：将块的系数排序成序列；对经排序的系数进行编码以产生码字序列，每个码字均包括一个或更多个编码系数；以及将码字序列划分为两个或更多个子序列。
