摘要:
An automatic gray balance control system to produce TRCs for all primary colors in a reproduction device and for each pitch of a photoreceptor system by printing target patches for each pitch, measuring the output colors, and automatically readjusting the tone reproduction curves until a satisfactory level of accuracy is obtained as compared to the theoretical desired output. The system produces pitch-based gray balanced TRCs that are updated frequently for each pitch, with different TRCs for different pitches, to ensure consistency in output from pitch to pitch as well as from page to page on a given pitch.

A method and system for color calibration or color output device spectrophotoically measures at test target including a preselected test color value. A multi-dimensional LUT of the device is generated representative of the color information including the at least one preselected color. Producing a second image width device including the at least one preselected color located at a plurality of spatial locations in the second image. A second sensor measures the second image and a plurality of spatial locations having the preselected color for generating reflectance information for the preselected color at the plurality of spatial locations. An error is determined between the measured color of the one preselected color and the reflectance information at the other pixel locations. A multi-dimensional LUT is adjusted to minimize spatial uniformity errors at the other pixel locations, thus calibrating device color output spatially.

A method for calibrating a printing system including a plurality of printers includes designating one of the plurality of printers as a reference printer and defining color values for a desired response for one or more printed test patches on a control page. Through a first process aimed toward achieving the desired response, a printed control page is generated with the reference printer, the control page including one or more of the test patches which, when measured, has a measured response which approaches the desired response. Through a second process aimed toward achieving a desired response, the desired response being the measured response of the reference printer, a printed control page is generated with a second of the printers, the control page including one or more of the test patches which, when measured, has a response which approaches the measured response of the reference printer.

摘要:
A printer or other marking engine includes a marking material transfer device, such as a photoreceptor drum or belt, that includes a plurality of pitches. Each pitch receives an individual color of marking material and conveys the marking material to a substrate. The marking engine forms a desired image in a main image area of the substrate using marking material from one or more of the pitches, and produces a target patch pattern for each of the pitches in a margin area located outside the main image area. A measuring device such as a spectrophotometer is used to measure each target patch pattern, and based on the measured values, an individual color calibration is performed for each pitch for use in a subsequent marking operation. The color calibration may include generating or modifying a tone reproduction curve for each pitch based on the measured values. The margin area may be later trimmed off, thereby removing the portion of the substrate on which the target patch pattern is formed.

What is disclosed is a video-based system and method for estimating heart rate variability from time-series signals generated from video images captured of a subject of interest being monitored for cardiac function. In a manner more fully disclosed herein, low frequency and high frequency components are extracted from a time-series signal obtained by processing a video of the subject being monitored. A ratio of the low and high frequency of the integrated power spectrum within these components is computed. Analysis of the dynamics of this ratio over time is used to estimate heart rate variability. The teachings hereof can be used in a continuous monitoring mode with a relatively high degree of measurement accuracy and find their uses in a variety of diverse applications such as, for instance, emergency rooms, cardiac intensive care units, neonatal intensive care units, and various telemedicine applications.

What is disclosed is a method for determining a color solution which achieves color objectives for a color marking device involves performing the following. In one embodiment, N objectives of interest are identified for a color marking device and a N-dimensional Pareto Front is constructed which comprises a collection of color solutions which accommodates those objectives. The Pareto Front is constructed using an optimization process based upon printer models of the objectives. Color solutions can be at least one color recipe, or a combination of color recipes and process actuators. A target point is selected in an N-dimensional objective space based upon at least one user-selected preference. The target point is then mapped to a point on the Pareto Front. The mapping identifies one of the color solutions which, in turn, is used to generate a spot color for the device. The generated spot color achieves the user-selected preference.

What is disclosed is a computationally efficient system and method for estimating a subject's cardiac pulse rate from multi-channel source video data. In one embodiment, A time-series signal is received. A sliding window is used to define overlapping segments of the time-series signal. Signal segments are processed by performing constrained independent component analysis (cICA) until convergence to obtain an estimated source signal. A frequency of each estimated source signal obtained by the cICA at convergence is determined to be the subject's estimated cardiac pulse rate for each signal segment. A seed reference signal used by the cICA is repeatedly updated. A sliding window is shifted to define a next time-series signal segment for processing. The method repeats for each signal segment until a termination criteria is met. In such a manner, the subject's cardiac pulse rate is estimated from a video of the subject on a continuous basis.
