Abstract
Luminance-based palette reordering is often considered less efficient than other more complex approaches, in what concerns improving the compression of color-indexed images. In this paper, we provide experimental evidence that, for color-quantized natural images, this may not be always the case. In fact, we show that, for dithered images with 128 colors or more, luminance-based reordering outperforms other more complex methods.
