Color Palette Generation for Nominal Encodings
نویسندگان
چکیده
Encoding data using color is a key technique employed by almost all visualizations. A set of colors used to represent data values must be carefully chosen in order to maximize the effectiveness of the visualization in which it is used. We present a method of automatically generating effective color palettes for nominal data encoding based on user specifications. We apply simulated annealing with an appropriate heuristic function to find palettes that have visually distinguishable colors and adhere closely to a user’s color preferences. Such palettes can be customized to feature color harmony, a particular variation of contrast or saturation, or support for the colorblind.

Adaptive Brush Stroke Generation for Painterly Rendering
We propose adaptive brush stroke generation for source images, using reference data. Colors used are formed by actual palette colors from artists. To create the palette, we have referred mostly to colors used in Van Gogh’s works and determined the color of brush strokes by transferring it to the most similar one, through comparing colors used in source images and the palette colors. Also, by re...
متن کاملThe blind detection for palette image watermarking without changing the color
To hide a binary pattern in the palette image a steganographic scheme with blind detection is considered. The embedding algorithm uses the Lehmer code by palette color permutations for which the cover image palette is generally required. The found transformation between the palette and RGB images allows to extract the hidden data without any cover work.
متن کاملColor quantization of compressed video sequences
This paper presents a novel color quantization algorithm for compressed video data. The proposed algorithm extracts discrete cosine (DC) transform coefficients and motion vectors of blocks in a shot to estimate a cumulative color histogram of the shot and, based on the estimated histogram, design a color palette for displaying the video sequence in the shot. It significantly reduces the complex...
متن کاملColor quantization by preserving color distribution features
A color quantization method is proposed. The method hierarchically uses a bisection tool that preserves certain color-distribution features. The preserved features are average color, variance in each color dimension, and average color radius. An algorithm is given that includes the histogram simpli"cation procedure, color palette generation, and pixel mapping. Experiments show that the proposed...
