摘要： Computer-based, anti-clipping, pre-printing, color-image correction via virtual color-parameter controllers that are provided within the graphic user interface of a print drier. Parameters accommodated include Red, Green and Blue offset, Lightness offset, Gamma and Chroma. Chroma modifications are handled preliminarily by a special mathematical matrix. In one embodiment of the invention, matrix-processed Chroma values are directly inserted into an algorithm, and are then co-processed with other parameter modifications within an anti-clipping, hyperbolic-tangent-function (asymptotic-like) algorithm which implements an asymptotic-like approach toward creating final pixel modification values that avoid range-limit color and/or tone-scale clipping. In another embodiment of the invention, matrix-processed Chroma values are additionally inserted in to such an algorithm as components of a pair of like cubic terms. These cubic terms function to enhance asymptotic behavior of the algorithm in certain situations. Final pixel values are drawn from three one-dimensional look-up tables, one for each of the three colors. These tables which, save overall computational time, are based upon prior user approval of a low-pixel-count sub-sampled preview image of the whole, larger, original image, in which preview image the expected effects of color parameter changes are observable.

摘要： Color values of a color space are stored in a color correction table. A smoothing process is performed on achromatic color values to remove artifacts and prevent image degradation caused by the correction process. The color values obtained from the smoothing process may also be adjusted for projection onto the achromatic axis.

摘要： A controller for a four-drum printer eliminates a need for an expensive inter-drum delay memory, which has been conventionally used, to print an RGB image and allows a multifunction machine, printer, and the like to be provided at low cost. An image ring interface reads an image data containing the same tile, which is stored in a tile pattern in a RAM, four times with a delay corresponding to a delay (10 lines of tiles) of image formation between image forming sections, and sequentially transfers the image data to four image output interfaces.

摘要： A method for producing a set of images as a photobook is provided. The method includes selecting a set of images having meta data and determining an attribute value for an attribute associated with each of the images. After determining an attribute value of an attribute, the method adjusts the attribute value associated with at least one of the images to render the attribute value of the images uniform. The method then organizes the images automatically using the meta data and determines a layout of the photobook by automatically adjusting spatial characteristics of the images within the photobook. Once the method determines a layout of the photobook, the method outputs the photobook.

摘要： A digital image quality enhancement method and apparatus convert RGB color data of a pixel of interest into color data having a brightness component and a saturation component, and segment the pixel of interest into a background pixel, an image pixel, or a text pixel using the brightness component and the saturation component. The method and apparatus label the pixel of interest as a text area, a background area, or an image area using history information regarding the pixel of interest, where the history information is a number of successive background pixels or image pixels before the pixel of interest. An image quality of the pixel of interest is enhanced to degrees corresponding to the area labeled and the method determines whether the pixel of interest is a final pixel of which an image quality is to be improved.

摘要： There is disclosed an image read apparatus including an image sensor including: first and second sensors including light receiving devices arranged in one row; a first shift register for outputting the pixel signals of all the light receiving devices of the first sensor; and second and third shift registers for outputting the even-numbered and odd-numbered pixel signals of the light receiving devices of the second sensor, in which invalid data is prevented from being written in a memory. The pixel signals outputted from the first to third shift registers constituting a CCD image sensor with the same transfer clock are selected and taken in via an AFE in a time division. The taken pixel data is successively sampled in a data sampling block and stored in a memory. Moreover, when the sampling timing is controlled in a take-in signal generation circuit, the pixel data stored in the memory is limited to indicate the pixel number of each shift register.
