A genetic-based adaptive threshold selection method for dynamic path tree structured vector quantization

We thus propose GATSM to solve this problem by using a set of images to train the thresholds for adapting their real practical need. Our experimental results show that the encoding time complexity of GATSM is superior to DPTSVQ based on the same image quality. In addition, we compare the image quality of GATSM with the encoding algorithm with fast comparison (EAWFC) based on the same encoding time. Comparison results show that GATSM provides better image quality than that of EAWFC.
