FIELD: image processing systems, in particular, methods and systems for encoding and decoding images.
SUBSTANCE: in accordance to the invention, input image is divided onto several image blocks (600), containing several image elements (610), further image blocks (600) are encoded to form encoded representations (700) of blocks, which contains color code word (710), intensity code word (720) and intensity representations series (730). Color code word (710) is a representation of colors of elements (610) of image block (600). Intensity code word (720) is a representation of a set of several intensity modifiers for modification of intensity of elements (610) in image block (600), and series (730) of representations includes representation of intensity for each element (610) in image block (600), where the series identifies one of intensity modifiers in a set of intensity modifiers. In process of decoding, code words (710, 720) of colors and intensity and intensity representation (730) are used to generate decoded representation of elements (610) in image block (600).
EFFECT: increased efficiency of processing, encoding/decoding of images for adaptation in mobile devices with low volume and productivity of memory.
