An exact derivation of an optimal lapped orthogonal transform (LOT) is presented. The optimal LOT is related to the discrete cosine transform (DCT) in such a way that a fast algorithm for a nearly optimal LOT is derived. Compared to the DCT, the fast LOT requires about 20-30% more computations, mostly additions. An image coding example demonstrates the effectiveness of the LOT in reducing blocking effects; the LOT actually leads to slightly smaller signal reconstruction errors than does the DCT.>
