Description
Summary:Vector quantization is one of high performance and popular methods for data compression. But it is extremely time consuming during the encoding process. In this paper, a fast encoding algorithm for vector quantization is proposed to save the computation time. This algorithm uses two characteristics of a vector, Hadamard transform (HT) and variance. The methods using one of these features was already proposed, they handles these features separately. Here, the proposed algorithm put forward a new inequality which utilizes these features simultaneously to rejects more codewords which are impossible to be the nearest codeword in the distortion computations stage. This method produces the same output as conventional full search algorithm. The simulation results show that the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is outstanding.
