Abstract

An algorithm for reducing the number of gray levels of a picture with minimal degradation (in a mathematically defined sense) is described. This method can produce a binary halftone of the picture, which is needed for many types of hard copy devices. The algorithm is based on a novel notion of distance between pictures that captures visual aspects.
