Abstract
The paper describes a parallel implementation of a neural algorithm performing vector quantization for very low bit-rate video compression on toroidal-mesh multiprocessor systems. The neural model considered is a plastic version of the Neural Gas algorithm, whose features are suitable for implementations on toroidal mesh topologies. The architecture adopted, and the data-allocation strategy, enhance the method's scaling properties and remarkable efficiency. The parallel approach is supported by a theoretical analysis of the efficiency of the overall structure. Experimental results on a significant testbed and the fit between predicted and measured values confirm the validity of the parallel approach.
