Entropy-constrained vector quantization

Abstract: Akfmct-An iterative descent algorithm based on a Lagrangian formulation is introduced for designing vector quantizers having minimum distortion subject to an entropy constraint. These entropy-constrained vector quantizers (ECVQ's) can be used in tandem with variable rate noiseless coding systems to provide locally optimal variable rate block source coding with respect to a fidelity criterion. Experiments on sampled speech and on synthetic sources with memory indicate that for waveform coding at low rates (abou… Show more

“…Here, we want to point out that since we are interested in the distortions obtainable over a whole range of rates, we ran the CECVQ algorithm repeatedly on an increasing sequence of λ's, beginning with λ 0 = 0 (given by the GLA) and increasing in a manner consistent with obtaining sufficient resolution along the rate axis. The final codebook for λ j is the initial codebook for λ j+1 , as suggested by [5] and [7]. Note that this procedure is an heuristic one to decrease the size of CECVQ codebooks.…”

“…Following the entropy-constrained coding tradition (see, for example, [14], [20], [32], [33]), we describe lossy code design as quantization followed by entropy coding. The only loss of generality associated with the entropy-constrained approach is the restriction to solutions lying on the lower convex hull of achievable entropies and distortions.…”
