Image-Color-Quantization-

Image Quatization using C# and Graph Theory

What is Image Quantization?

Quantization is a lossy (some of the information is lost) compression technique achieved by compressing a range of values to a single quantum value. Image or color quantization is a technique where the number of colors is reduced; this is important for displaying images on devices that support a limited number of colors and for efficiently compressing certain kinds of images. Most editors and many operating systems have built-in support for color quantization. The reduced representative colors are called color palette. The quantization process should be optimized as possible so that not much information is lost and the new quantized image should differ as little as possible from the original image.

Description

The project aims to quantize image to a smaller size by decreasing the colors in it so the image looks a bit different using smaller colors. All is listed in the documentation which is attached with the project or through this link any comment is appreciated.
