Quantization

The present page holds the title of a primary topic, and an article needs to be written about it. It is believed to qualify as a broad-concept article. It may be written directly at this page or drafted elsewhere and then moved to this title. Related titles should be described in Quantization, while unrelated titles should be moved to Quantization (disambiguation).

Quantization is the process of constraining an input from a continuous or otherwise large set of values (such as the real numbers) to a discrete set (such as the integers). The term quantization may refer to:

Signal processing

  • Quantization (signal processing)
    • Quantization (image processing)
      • Color quantization
    • Vector quantization
    • Quantization (music)

Physics

  • Quantization (physics)
    • Canonical quantization
    • Geometric quantization
  • Discrete spectrum, or otherwise discrete quantity
    • Spatial quantization
    • Charge quantization

Computing

  • The process of making the signal discrete in amplitude by approximating the sampled signal to the nearest pre-defined level is called as quantization
