Linde-Buzo-Gray algorithm

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Linde-Buzo-Gray algorithm is a vector quantization algorithm to derive a good codebook. It is similar to the k-means method in data clustering.

[edit] The algorithm

At each iteration, each vector is split into two new vectors.

  • A initial state: centroid of the training sequence;
  • B initial estimation #1: code book of size 2;
  • C final estimation after LGA: Optimal code book with 4 vectors;
  • D initial estimation #2: code book of size 4;
  • E final estimation after LGA: Optimal code book with 4 vectors;
