  • Abstract
    A basic color block truncation coding (CBTC) algorithm for color image compression is described. A modification of the algorithm that reduces truncation errors is also described. The block statistics related to CBTC methods are investigated. Some experimental results are given for a 256-×256-pixel color image with 24 b/pixel
