Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) is an orthogonal transformation method that decomposes an image to its spatial frequency spectrum. It expresses a finite sequence of data points in terms of a sum of cosine functions oscillating at different frequencies. It is used a lot in compression tasks, e..g image compression where for example high-frequency components can be discarded. It is a type of Fourier-related Transform, similar to discrete fourier transforms (DFTs), but only using real numbers.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (212 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
