    摘要: A method of optimizing printing is applied to a printing apparatus and has following steps of retrieving an input image, executing a tagging process on the input image for tagging one of an edge tag, a fuzzy tag, and a photo tag on each sub-image of the input image, executing the different printing converting process on each sub-image according to its tag for obtaining a printable image, and printing according to the printable image. The present disclosed example can deepen the object edges in the image being printed, improving the image quality of non-edge regions, and improving the printing quality.

    摘要: An image processing apparatus includes a filtering processing unit that executes a filtering process to suppress background noise of input image data; a threshold setting unit that sets a binarization threshold for the input image data; a background noise determination threshold setting unit that determines that a tone value at which the number of pixels of background noise of the input image data reaches a peak is a background peak tone value and that sets, as a background noise determination threshold, a tone value having a density higher than a density of the background peak tone value and having a number of pixels within a specific range of percentages, of the number of pixels at the peak; a background noise reduction processing unit that executes a background noise reduction process on the input image data and a binarization processing unit that executes a binarization process on the input image data.

    摘要: The present invention discloses a false color removal method comprising: receiving a current pixel including a first color value, a second color value and a third color value, in which the three color values are composed of a maximum value, a medium value and a minimum value; performing permutation to the maximum value, the medium value and the minimum value to obtain six permutation results; calculating six weighting values, in which a kth weighting value is calculated according to at least a kth permutation result of the six permutation results and the three color values, and the k stands for an integer-variable between one and six; calculating six products, in which a kth product is obtained by multiplying the kth weighting value by the kth permutation result; and using the sum of the six products to update the first, second and third color values.

    摘要: Measures for use in calibrating a printing device. Historical dot gain linearization lookup table data for the printing device is processed. On the basis of the processed historical dot gain linearization lookup table data, a plurality of input points for a current dot gain linearization lookup table are dynamically determined. The printing device is calibrated according to the dynamically determined current dot gain linearization lookup table.

    摘要: Techniques for converting mechanical markings on hardcopy textual content into digital annotations in a digital document file. In accordance with some embodiments, the techniques include identifying at least one block of text in a digital (scanned) image of a hardcopy document, and identifying at least one mechanical marking in the digital image of the hardcopy document. The mechanical marking, such as an underline, strike-through, highlight or circle, covers or lies adjacent to the corresponding block of text. An annotated digital document file is generated from the digital image of the hardcopy document. The annotated digital document file includes computer-executable instructions representing the original text of the hardcopy document and at least one annotation corresponding to the mechanical marking in the hardcopy document.

    摘要: A method for applying filters to digital images with minimal amplification of image noise, comprising filtering the digital image with an EPDR edge-preserving detail-reducing filter, determining a matrix from the filtered image as a result of one or more structure adaptive functions, and modifying the digital image using the filter, adjusted by the matrix values, to produce an enhanced digital image. The order of processing may be inverted, by first determining the matrix and then filtering the matrix with the edge-preserving detail-reducing filter.

    摘要: Examples to process print media (105) are defined herein. At least one marked cell from a plurality of cells (305) extending throughout a processed image of the print media (105) is detected. The processed image of the print media (105) may include marked portions (110) and unmarked portions (115). Further, the marked cell overlays a marked portion of the processed image. Once the marked cell is detected, the marked portions (110) of the print media (105) corresponding to the marked portions (110) of the processed image may be determined and separated from the print media (105) to provide a processed media (130) comprising the unmarked portions (115).
