In one embodiment, a single fixed parametric model, such as a polynomial is used to represent a quantization matrix. Modulation of bit cost and complexity is achieved by specifying only the n first polynomial coefficients, the remaining ones being implicitly set to zero or other default values. One form of the single fixed polynomial is a fully developed polynomial in (x,y), where x,y indicate the coordinates of a given coefficient in a quantization matrix, with terms ordered by increasing exponent. Since higher exponents are the last ones, reducing the number of polynomial coefficients reduces the degree of the polynomial, hence its complexity. The polynomial coefficients can be symmetrical in x and y, and thus reducing the number of polynomial coefficients that need to be signaled in the bitstream.
