Method for a mosaic image representation (MIR) is proposed for a selective treatment of image fragments of different transition frequency. MIR method is based on piecewise-constant image approximation on a non-uniform orthogonal grid constructed by the following recurrent multigrid algorithm. A sequence of nested uniform grids is built, such that each cell of a current grid is subdivided into four smaller cells for the next grid designing. In each grid the cells are selected, where the color intensity function can be approximated by its average value with a given precision (thereafter 'good' cells). After replacing colors of good cells by their approximating constants the reconstructed image looks like a mosaic composed of one-colored cells. Multigrid algorithm results in the stratification of the image space into regions of different transition frequency. Sizes of these regions depend on the few tuning precision parameters that characterizes adaptability of the method to the image fragments of different non-homogeneity degree. The method is found efficient for prominent contour (skeleton) extraction, edge detection as well as for the Lossy Compression of single images and video sequence of images.
