Efficient statistical computations for optimal color quantization
Abstract
This chapter discusses efficient statistical computations for optimal color quantization. Color quantization is a must when using an inexpensive 8-bit color display to display high-quality color images. Even when 24-bit full color displays become commonplace in the future, quantization will still be important because it leads to significant image data compression, making extra frame buffer available for animation and reducing bandwidth …
