public class QuantizeFilter
extends WholeImageFilter

A filter which quantizes an image to a set number of colors - useful for producing images which are to be encoded using an index color model. The filter can perform Floyd-Steinberg error-diffusion dithering if required. At present, the quantization is done using an octtree algorithm but I eventually hope to add more quantization methods such as median cut. Note: at present, the filter produces an image which uses the RGB color model (because the application it was written for required it). I hope to extend it to produce an IndexColorModel by request.

Method Detail

setNumColors

public void setNumColors(int numColors)

Set the number of colors to quantize to.

Parameters:

numColors - the number of colors. The default is 256.

getNumColors

public int getNumColors()

Get the number of colors to quantize to.

Returns:

the number of colors.

setDither

public void setDither(boolean dither)

Set whether to use dithering or not. If not, the image is posterized.

Parameters:

dither - true to use dithering

getDither

public boolean getDither()

Return the dithering setting

Returns:

the current setting

setSerpentine

public void setSerpentine(boolean serpentine)

Set whether to use a serpentine pattern for return or not. This can reduce 'avalanche' artifacts in the output.

Parameters:

serpentine - true to use serpentine pattern

getSerpentine

public boolean getSerpentine()

Return the serpentine setting

Returns:

the current setting

quantize

public void quantize(int[] inPixels,
            int[] outPixels,
            int width,
            int height,
            int numColors,
            boolean dither,
            boolean serpentine)

filterPixels

protected int[] filterPixels(int width,
                 int height,
                 int[] inPixels,
                 Rectangle transformedSpace)

Description copied from class: WholeImageFilter

Actually filter the pixels.

Specified by:

filterPixels in class WholeImageFilter

Parameters:

width - the image width

height - the image height

inPixels - the image pixels

transformedSpace - the output bounds

Returns:

the output pixels

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object
