Grid-Based Line Drawing Quantization.
Abstract
This paper documents a quantitative analysis of the performance of the generalized chain codes when used to quantize specific periodic waveforms. The analysis was performed using a software simulation of the various forms of the code to encode sine waves and circular waves. The performance of the coding schemes was measured in terms of the encoding rate and the area error in the quantization. Comparisons were made of the performance of codes for a particular function when the initial phase was altered. Comparisons were also made of the performance of the different forms of the codes used in quantizing the same function. Finally, the performance of the codes for the sine wave was compared with the performance of the same code for a circular wave having the same amplitude and period. (Author)
