[[wp:Color_quantization|Color quantization]] is the process of reducing number of colors used in an image while trying to maintain the visual appearance of the original image. In general, it is a form of [[wp:Cluster_analysis|cluster analysis]], if each RGB color value is considered as a coordinate triple in the 3D colorspace. There are some well know algorithms [http://web.cs.wpi.edu/~matt/courses/cs563/talks/color_quant/CQindex.html], each with its own advantages and drawbacks. |
