Abstract:We show that when mean -square error is used to determine the performance of image compression algorithms, in particular vector quantization algorithms, the mean -square error measurement is dependent upon the data type of the digitized images. When using vector quantization the possibility exists for encoding images of one type with code books of another type, we show that this cross -encoding has an adverse effect on performance. Thus, when making comparative evaluations of different vector quantization comp… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
