    摘要: A new method and data encapsulation arrangement are disclosed for over-ranging color image data. The resulting data storage format renders color image data sets encoded in the over-ranging format compatible with in-range color image systems. Thus, color images including over-ranging portions will be readable by legacy systems that handle only in-range color data. The new arrangement of the color image data storage comprises a file header segment describing contents of a color image file. The new arrangement also includes an image data segment comprising digital image data representing a set of color image elements encoded in a signed over-ranged color space. A multi-partitioned color image bitmap data segment is created. A first partition in the multi-partitioned bitmap data segment includes image data corresponding to a first color image data word portion associated with an in-range color space. A second partition in the multi-partitioned bitmap data segment includes image data corresponding to a second color image data word portion associated with an over-ranging color space. The second partition may optionally include additional precision bits that are concatenated with the lowest precision in-range color channel data of the first partition.

    摘要: Various embodiments provide for gamut mapping spectral content. Source appearance content is created from source spectral data corresponding to a source color image. The source appearance content is mapped to an appearance delta using a gamut mapping algorithm. Destination spectral data is derived from the source spectral data and the appearance delta by way of a spectral mapping algorithm. The appearance delta corresponds to two potentially different gamuts or color spaces. Humanly perceptible differences in the color appearance of a destination image as compared the source image are reduced by the mapping techniques provided herein.

    摘要: Optimized color codecs and methods of compressing and decompressing color images using programmable color space parameters are provided. In accordance with one method of encoding a color image, input data comprising input image pixel data and color space parameters is provided. The input image pixel data is compressed based on the color space parameter data. The color space parameter data is then appended to the compressed image pixel data. In accordance with one method of decoding a compressed color image, compressed data is provided that comprises compressed image pixel data and color space parameters. The color space parameters are separated from the compressed image pixel data. The compressed image pixel data is then decompressed based on the color space parameters.

    摘要: A system and method for image acquisition enables selective automated application of color management to color image data generated by an image-capturing device by the device driver for the device. In the image acquisition system, each image-capturing device has properties or operation parameters that can be set to control the operation of the device. During an image acquisition operation, color image data generated by the image-capturing device are transmitted to the device driver. If the operation parameters of the device are set to indicate that color management is to be performed, the device driver calls color management functions provided by the operating system to perform the desired color operation, such as a color space conversion, on the received color image data. The processed color image data are then sent to the image-processing application for further processing or editing.

    摘要: An imaging or other sensory reproduction system efficiently converts image or other sensory data between a perceptual color space (e.g., the sRGB color space) and a physical color space (unity gamma) or other perceptual/physical sensory models that are related by an expression involving a computationally expensive exponential function. The imaging system calculates exponential functions that can be composed from computationally inexpensive operations, such as square root, square, reciprocal, as well as multiplications and/or additions and subtractions. These computationally less expensive functions are then combined, such as in a weighted and/or offset mean, summation or difference to approximate the computationally expensive exponential function. The imaging system evaluates the expression using the approximation to efficiently yield the converted image data. The efficient conversion between perceptual and physical color spaces allows operations, such as blending and anti-aliasing, to be performed in the physical color space before display of a perceptual color space image.

    摘要: A system and method for recoloring color objects selectively applies color processing operations in a particular pipelined sequence to offer improved performance and quality of color processing. The recoloring sequence includes a transformation by a 5×5 matrix that handles various types of transformations in the color space of the color object, a gamma correction, a bi-level thresholding operation, and a conversion into a color space, such as the CMYK space, for an output device. Each of these operations in the recoloring sequence may be selectively activated or deactivated depending on the attributes of the color object being processed and the desired recoloring effects. The transformation with the 5×5 matrix allows various transformation operations, such as rotation, scaling, translation, shearing, and perspective in the color space of the color object to be combined and performed in a single step, resulting in significantly improved processing efficiency.
