Abstract: As we move into the digital era, the pace of technological advancement is accelerating rapidly. Network traffic often becomes congested during the transmission of large data volumes. To mitigate this, data compression plays a crucial role in minimizing transmitted data. Vector quantization (VQ) stands out as a potent compression technique where each image block is encoded independently as an index linked to a codebook, effectively reducing the bit rate. In this paper, we introduce a novel scheme for recompressing VQ indices, enabling lossless restoration of the original indices during decoding without compromising visual quality. Our method not only considers pixel correlations within each image block but also leverages correlations between neighboring blocks, further optimizing the bit rate. The experimental results demonstrated the superior performance of our approach over existing methods.
