    摘要: A group of pixels of a digital image is processed to reduce bleed-through. The processing includes generating an upper bound for each pixel of the group; and taking a weighted average of the upper bound and original pixel intensity for each pixel of the group.

    摘要: A method of deriving from an existing selective image smoothing filter either a corresponding filter for selective image sharpening, or a corresponding filter for both selective image smoothing and selective image sharpening. The selective sharpening filter can be implemented quickly by using implementations of the existing selective smoothing filter and a derived matching non-selective smoothing filter as black boxes and combining their outputs in a simple manner. Alternatively, the derived selective sharpening filter can be implemented by inlining the combination of the implementations of the existing selective smoothing.

    摘要: A system and method of image processing for smoothing, denoising, despeckling and sharpening scanned document images which is performed prior to a compression. The scanned image is selectively smoothed by anisotropic diffusion filtering in a single iteration with a 3×3 kernel, which provides denoising, edge-preserving smoothing. The smoothed image data is then selectively sharpened using variable contrast mapping that provides overshoot-free variable-sharpening and despeckling. Image quality is improvides while increasing compressibility of the image.
