摘要:
It is determined whether a repeating pattern is present in an image (100). When no repeating pattern is present, the image is divided into patch images, the resultant patch images are used to create a random repeating pattern, and the random repeating pattern is output (108). In addition, when the number of repetitions of the repeating pattern in the image is 2×2 or more (102), the repetition period is determined by transforming pixel values into frequency coefficients, and the repeating pattern is extracted based on the result of determining the repetition period, and is output (104). When the number of repetitions of the repeating pattern in the image is less than 2×2, the repetition period is determined by performing division using local maximum values of autocorrelation coefficients, and the repetition pattern is extracted based on the result of determining the repetition period (106).

A reflectance of a color shifted painting color is also measured conveniently.A first reflectance R(αa) of a first reflected light Va inside an incident plane A is measured, and a first locus l of termini of first bisection vectors Ha(|Ha|=|R(αa)|), which displaces two-dimensionally inside the incident plane A, is determined. A second reflectance R(αb) of a second reflected light Vb outside the incident plane A is measured, and a second locus m of termini of second bisection vectors Hb (|Hb|=|R(αb)|), which displaces three-dimensionally outside the incident plane A, is measured. A locus n (x, y, zi) of a terminus of a bisection vector Hi on a plane z=z that is parallel to a plane under measurement is approximately modeled with a numerical equation showing an ellipse from the first locus l and the second locus m, thereby determining an approximation model equation, and an overall locus n′ (x, y, z) of the overall termini of bisection vectors H′ of reflected lights V′ other than the first reflected light Va and the second reflected light Vb is approximately determined.

A lever assembly holds a wiper strip, which directly wipes a wiping surface. The lever assembly includes a plurality of levers, which are connected together in tournament style. An axial length of the lever assembly is shorter than an axial length of the wiper strip. A cover member receives the lever assembly, and opposed ends of the cover member hold the wiper strip. The cover member includes a plurality of cover portions, which are formed separately from one another.
摘要:
A growth crucible (2) for depositing on a seed crystal substrate (5) a silicon carbide single crystal (6) using a sublimate gas of a silicon carbide raw material (11) is disposed inside of an outer crucible (1). During the course of silicon carbide single crystal, a silicon raw material (22) is continuously fed from outside into a space between the growth crucible and the outer crucible for the purpose of vaporizing the silicon raw material. An atmosphere gas surrounding the growth crucible is constituted of a silicon gas. The pressure of the atmosphere silicon gas is controlled to suppress a variation in the composition of the sublimate gas within the growth crucible to thereby grow a large-sized silicon carbide single crystal with few crystal defects on the seed crystal substrate reliably at a high growth rate.
摘要:
By inputting a predetermined number of first data to a color reproducing device, a predetermined number of reproduced colors are respectively measured, and a plurality of relationships of correspondence between inputted first data and measured second data are determined. On the basis of the plurality of relationships of correspondence between the first data and the second data, relationships of interpolated correspondence, which express relationships between second data other than the measured second data and first data corresponding to the second data other than the measured second data, are estimated. After second data which is the same as or closest to a color to be reproduced is selected, first data corresponding to selected second data is selected on the basis of the relationships of correspondence and the relationships of interpolated correspondence. Selected first data is then inputted to the color reproducing device, and a color to be reproduced is reproduced.

摘要:
A method of image recording comprises the steps of performing photometry on a plurality of pixels into which an original film is divided, calculating the large-area transmittance density (LATD) of said original film on the basis of the photometric values for individual pixels, designating the main area of said original film, calculating the average transmittance density of the designated main area on the basis of said photometric values, determining conditions of exposure as appropriate for said original film on the basis of a linear relationship between said LATD and the average transmittance density of the main area, and performing imagewise recording on a light-sensitive material under the thus determined appropriate conditions of exposure. Using this method, even an unskilled operator is capable of reproducing the image of a principal subject such as a human figure or his/her face to provide an optimum density in an easy and precise manner. Also, an apparatus for image recording applies this method to test printing and needs only a single run of test printing to determine optimum conditions exposure for producing an enlarged print or an ultra-high quality image.
