Abstract
A method is provided for the fractal representation of data in which the data (902) is divided into a first series of overlapping regions. A weighting function is applied to the regions. The weighted regions are expanded onto an orthonormal basis, and the orthonormal expansion is truncated at a predetermined point. A residue is formed between the data (902) and the truncated orthonormal expansion, and a fractal approximation to the residue is determined.
