What is the difference between LBG and K-means? Memming 05:04, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * According to, LBG is like the batch mode of K-means. Does K-means supposed to be online mode? Memming 15:33, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * LBG uses Lloyd's algorithm to refine the codebook after splitting each vector in the codebook in two. Holzklöppel (talk) 20:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

What does LGA mean? Lensi (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 08:40, 29 May 2008 (UTC)


 * I assume they wanted to abbreviate "Generalized Lloyd Algorithm". Holzklöppel (talk) 20:35, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

I just want to "vote" and say that LBG is an important vector quantization algorithm... one of the most (behind k-means) cited alorithms. Of course this is just based on my personal experience and I have no statistics to back this up...Hydradix (talk) 14:58, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

Sourcing, Content need improvement
I rewrote the lede of the article to be what I (not a subject-matter expert) considered comprehensible and added a pseudocode description as per WP:ALGO. The article still needs more sources than the one I used to gain an understanding of the algorithm, details and general information is also missing. I am dissatisfied with the pseudocode and feel the algorithm would be better represented in prose, but MOS says pseudocode. Holzklöppel (talk) 08:12, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
