Abstract

The use of the generalized Breiman Friedman. Olshen. and Stone (BFOS) algorithm, a recently developed technique for variable rate vector quantizer design, for optimal bit allocation is analyzed. It is shown that if each source has a convex quantizer function, then the complexity of the algorithm is low.
