COLOR IMAGE QUANTIZATION FOR HIGH-RESOLUTION GRAPHICS DISPLAY

Techniques for the display of natural colour images on high resolution graphics displays are described. The high resolution of the display enables the use of a combination of display colours to reproduce an original image colour and so to achieve high quality display even with a low number of display colours. Adaptation of the colour quantization techniques to the case of high resolution display is presented. The quantization algorithms are developed as a generalization of the common vector quantization algorithms.
