Techniques for Vector Quantization.

Abstract

The second year of AFOSR support at the University of California, Santa Barbara has allowed us to make significant strides in exploring the potential of vector quantization for source coding. Some of this work is described in the attached list of references. Some of the studies were completed, including predictive vector quantization and rate distortion modeling of speech using a composite source model to obtain rate distortion bounds on performance of vector quantization. Particularly important results in the second year include the development of a new family of fast search algorithms for pattern matching and the development of Hierarchical Vector Quantization. Several other promising studies, including compandor/lattice coding, were still in progress when the grant terminated. (Author)
