چکیده

Investigate a method for combining two dispersed-dot halftoning masks for two colors that generalizes the traditional angular displacement used with clustered-dot halftone screens. We used two variations of the Linear Pixel Shuffling algebraic mask algorithm involving numbers arising from two third order, Fibonacci-like recurrences, As an alternative to screen rotation, masks were flipped and rotated. All combinations of the transposed, inverted masks were used to generate 25% cyan and 25% magenta images. Resulting blue images were evaluated for color uniformity several ways.

Compressible halftoning

We present a technique for converting continuous gray-scale images to halftone (black and white) images that lend themselves to lossless data compression with compression factor of three or better. Our method involves using novel halftone mask structures which consist of non-repeated threshold values. We have versions of both dispersed-dot and clustered-dot masks, which produce acceptable image...

Digital color halftoning with generalized error diffusion and multichannel green-noise masks

In this paper, we introduce two novel techniques for digital color halftoning with green-noise--stochastic dither patterns generated by homogeneously distributing minority pixel clusters. The first technique employs error diffusion with output-dependent feedback where, unlike monochrome image halftoning, an interference term is added such that the overlapping of pixels of different colors can b...

Embedding of color image on QR code with reduced processing time using Genetic Algorithm

Color depends primarily on the reflectance properties of an object. Color image can be modeled as three band monochrome image data, where each band of the data corresponds to a different color. The concept of embedding color image in to the Quick Response code using Genetic Algorithm can reduce the processing time. Halftoning masking techniques are used to take the pixels from the images. After...

Advances in Technology of KODAK NEXPRESS Digital Production Color Presses

The stochastic screen has traditionally been used to preserve images with fine features as well as to reduce printing Moiré of images that contain input periodic structures. However, the stochastic screen also has experienced more difficulty in maintaining color stability in long press runs. Kodak, using its multilevel printing architecture, has created a new stochastic screening technology, wi...

Halftoning Method by CMY Printing Based on BNM

The overlapping of black dot decreases brightness and black dot is very sensitive to the human visual system in the bright region. In this paper, for gray-level expression, only the bright gray region in the color image was considered for blue noise mask (BNM) approach. To solve this problem, BNM with CMY dot was used for the bright region instead of black dot. We dispersed CMY dots spatially. ...
