Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodAddColor
Add color to the list of processed colors.
Public methodClear
Clear internal state of the color quantization algorithm by clearing the list of colors so far processed.
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetPalette
Get paletter of the specified size.
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.

Extension Methods
  NameDescription
Public Extension MethodHasMethod
Checks whether an object implements a method with the given name.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodIsEqual
Compares two objects for equality, performing an elementwise comparison if the elements are vectors or matrices.
(Defined by Matrix.)
Public Extension MethodTo(Type)Overloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.

Remarks

The class implements median cutcolor quantization algorithm.

See also ColorImageQuantizer class, which may simplify processing of images.

Sample usage:

Copy
// create the color quantization algorithm
IColorQuantizer quantizer = new MedianCutQuantizer( );
// process colors (taken from image for example)
for ( int i = 0; i < pixelsToProcess; i++ )
{
    quantizer.AddColor( /* pixel color */ );
}
// get palette reduced to 16 colors
Color[] palette = quantizer.GetPalette( 16 );
