Abstract

In this study, an algorithm for dithering true color image to 8-bit indexded color image using Artificial Neural Network was proposed. An adaptive vector quantization algorithm based on Artificial neural network was proposed for dithering color images. To evaluate the proposed algorithm, Mean Square Error(MSE) and quality between original image and dithered image was compared to those of other algorithm. As a results, MSE of proposed algorithm was lower than that of other algorithm used in commercial application and quality of dithered image was also highly improved.
