Image data segmentation and transmission

A computing device, comprising:

• a logic subsystem comprising one or more processors;
• and memory storing instructions executable by the logic subsystem to:
• perform spatial decomposition and/or frequency decomposition of one or more source images to thereby respectively generate a plurality of spatial components and/or frequency components;
• determine a priority order for the plurality of spatial components and/or frequency components, wherein the priority order is determined by:
• adding noise to or performing quality degradation on one or more of the plurality of spatial components and/or frequency components,
• obtaining a measurement of an effect of the noise or the quality degradation on objects in the one or more source images, and
• determining the priority order based at least in part on the measurement;
• and
• transmitting the plurality of spatial components and/or frequency components to a remote computing device in the priority order.
