Abstract

A method of classifying a compressed input image's compression level, comprising applying inverse quantization to DCT coefficients extracted from the compressed input image, giving rise to dequantized DCT coefficients, applying a threshold to the dequantized DCT coefficients, and determining a compression level classification for the compressed input image according to a relation among the threshold and at least one of the dequantized DCT coefficients.
