Abstract

The suggested model for image quantization transforms the images (the image space) in low gray levels or quantized values. It use the class membership of the images. The model is based on multi-level thresholding or irregular quantization for each pixel. The problems stated are reduced to solving integer-valued systems of equations and inequalities as well as integer-valued optimization problems. These problems are NP-complete. From the condition that the image classes are non-intersecting it follows that the minimum quantization of the images exists. Possible algorithms for solving the suggested problems are briefly discussed.
