Abstract

In this paper an adaptive hierarchical algorithm of vector quantization for image coding is proposed. First the basic codebook is generated adaptively, then the codes are coded into higher-level codes by creating an index codebook using the redundance presented in the codes. This hierarchical scheme lowers the bit rate significantly and causes little more computation and no more distortion than the single-layer adaptive VQ algorithm does which is used to create the basic codebook.
