Abstract
A novel technique for digital image halftoning is proposed, based on a symmetric error diffusion algorithm and a new form of artificial neural network. Using an error diffusion neural network, all pixel quantization decisions are computed in parallel and therefore visual artifacts resulting from the causality of the diffusion filter in classical error diffusion techniques are reduced and the resulting halftoned image quality is improved
