Abstract

A novel variable-rate vector quantizer (VQ) design algorithm using both fuzzy and competitive learning technique is presented. The algorithm enjoys better rate-distortion performance than that of other existing fuzzy clustering and competitive learning algorithms. In addition, the learning algorithm is less sensitive to the selection of initial reproduction vectors. Therefore, the algorithm can be an effective alternative to the existing variable-rate VQ algorithms for signal compression.
