Bayesian Color Correction Method for Non-Colorimetric Digital Image Sensors
نویسندگان
چکیده
A Bayesian method of generating color correction matrices for digital image sensors is presented. This method was developed for sensors with poor colorimetric quality, and uses strong prior assumptions about object surface reflectance functions to improve color correction accuracy. These assumptions are expressed through linear model constraints on surface reflectance coupled with a Normal distribution over linear model weights. Results obtained with simulations and real camera images are presented. The Bayesian method works well for highly noncolorimetric sensors and has been used in industrial practice with good and stable results. For sensors with better colorimetric properties, methods employing weaker assumptions about surfaces can sometimes produce better results.

Recovering fluorescent spectra with an RGB digital camera and color filters using different matrix factorizations.
The aim of a multispectral system is to recover a spectral function at each image pixel, but when a scene is digitally imaged under a light of unknown spectral power distribution (SPD), the image pixels give incomplete information about the spectral reflectances of objects in the scene. We have analyzed how accurately the spectra of artificial fluorescent light sources can be recovered with a d...

This paper proposes a smartphone-based colorimetric pH detection method using a color adaptation algorithm for point-of-care applications. Although a smartphone camera can be utilized to measure the color information of colorimetric sensors, ambient light changes and unknown built-in automatic image correction operations make it difficult to obtain stable color information. This paper utilizes ...

متن کاملSpatially Varying Color Correction Matrices for Reduced Noise
Color space transformation (or color correction) needs to be performed in typical imaging devices because the spectral sensitivity functions of the sensors deviate from the desired target color space. Several researchers have shown that when the color channels are correlated, color correction can result in sensor noise amplification [1-4]. In this paper, we describe a color correction method th...
متن کاملRed Eye Removal using Digital Color Image Processing
The current paper provides methods to correct the artifact known as “red eye” by means of digital color image processing. This artifact is typically formed in amateur photographs taken with a built-in camera flash. To correct red eye artifacts, an image mask is computed by calculating a colorimetric distance between a prototypical reference “red eye” color and each pixel of the image containing...
