Abstract

In this paper we present a very simple and yet effective algorithm to generate codebook. The algorithm uses sorting method to generate codebook and the codevectors are obtained by using median approach. The proposed algorithm was experimented on six different images each of size 512x512 and four different codebooks of sizes 128, 256, 512 and 1024 are generated. The proposed algorithm is found to be much faster than the LBG and KPE algorithm. The performance of this algorithm is better than LBG and KPE algorithms considering MSE, PSNR and execution time. The proposed algorithm gives less MSE as compared to the LBG for the codebooks of sizes 128, 256, 512 & 1024 respectively. It also gives higher PSNR as compared to LBG for the codebooks of various sizes.
