Abstract
In this paper, we develop a method for generating thumbnail images at hybrid domain combined the spatial domain and transform domain. The proposed method generates a pixel of a thumbnail image by adding a DC value of residual transform coefficients and an average value of an estimate block. For effectively calculating average values of estimate blocks, we propose a method for reconstructing the boundary pixels of a block. In comparison to the conventional method of decoding the bit stream then scaling down the decoded images, the developed method reduces the complexity by more than 60% while producing identical thumbnail images.
