RT Conference Proceedings T1 Hierarchical Color Quantization with a Neural Gas Model Based on Bregman Divergences A1 Palomo-Ferrer, Esteban José A1 Benito-Picazo, Jesús A1 Domínguez-Merino, Enrique A1 López-Rubio, Ezequiel A1 Ortega-Zamorano, Francisco K1 Redes neuronales artificiales AB In this paper, a new color quantization method based on a self-organized artificial neural network called the Growing HierarchicalBregman Neural Gas (GHBNG) is proposed. This neural network is based on Bregman divergences, from which the squared Euclidean distance is a particular case. Thus, the best suitable Bregman divergence for color quantization can be selected according to the input data. Moreover, the GHBNG yields a tree-structured model that represents the input data so that a hierarchical color quantization can be obtained, where each layer of the hierarchy contains a different color quantizationof the original image. Experimental results confirm the color quantization capabilities of this approach.
