Color quantization of image sequences is a case of non-stationary clus
tering problem. The approach we adopt to deal with this kind of proble
ms is to propose adaptive algorithms to compute the cluster representa
tives. We have studied the application of Competitive Neural Networks
and Evolution Strategies to the one-pass adaptive solution of this pro
blem. One-pass adaptation is imposed by the near real-time constraint
that we try to achieve. In this paper we propose a simple and effectiv
e evolution strategy for this task. Two kinds of competitive neural ne
tworks are also applied. Experimental results show that the proposed e
volution strategy can produce results comparable to that of competitiv
e neural networks.
