Abstract
Color image quantization, the process of reducing the number of colors in a digital color image, has been widely studied for the last fiftee n years, In this correspondence, the different steps of clustering met hods are studied. The methods are compared step bq step and some optim izations of the algorithms and data structures are given, A new color space called H1H2H3 is introduced, which improves quantization heurist ics. A low-cost quantization scheme is proposed.
