Title Vector quantization using the L∞ distortion measure
Date 1997
Description Abstract-This paper considers vector quantization of signals using the L1 distortion measure. The key contribution is a result that allows one to characterize the centroid of a set of vectors for the L1 distortion measure. A method similar to the Linde-Buzo-Gray (LBG) algorithm for designing codebooks has been developed and tested. The paper also discusses the design of vector quantizers employing the L1 distortion measure in an application in which the occurrences of quantization errors with larger magnitudes than a preselected threshold must be minimized.
