Conventional grayscale error di usion halftoning produces worms and other objectionable artifacts. Tone dependent error di usion (Li and Allebach) reduces these artifacts by controlling the di usion of quantization errors based on the input graylevel. Li and Allebach optimize error lter weights and thresholds for each (input) graylevel based on a human visual system model. This paper extends to...

Multisensory integration increases the salience of sensory events and, therefore, possibly also their ability to capture attention in visual search. This was investigated in two experiments where spatially uninformative color change cues preceded visual search arrays with color-defined targets. Tones were presented synchronously with these cues on half of all trials. Spatial-cuing effects indic...

In video games, High Dynamic Range (HDR) rendering is commonly used and allows us to render more photo-realistic looking images. HDR rendering uses a tone-mapping process to achieve a Low Dynamic Range (LDR) rendering result for a display. The process compresses or clamps HDR color information to fit LDR devices which typically have an 8-bit color resolution. There are a lot of tone-mapping alg...

For over 20 years, color appearance models have evolved to the point of international standardization. These models are capable of predicting the appearance of spatially-simple color stimuli under a wide variety viewing conditions and have been applied to images by treating each pixel as an independent stimulus. It has been more recently recognized that revolutionary advances in color appearanc...

The present study considers a fuzzy color system in which three input fuzzy sets are constructed on the tone triangle. This system can process a fuzzy input to a tone triangular system and output to a color on the RGB triangular system. Three input fuzzy sets (not black, white, and light) are applied to the tone triangle relationship. By treating three attributes of chromaticness, whiteness, an...

Image manipulation takes many forms. A powerful approach involves image adjustment by example. To make color editsmore intuitive, the intelligent transfer of a user-specified target image’s color palette can achieve a multitude of creative effects, provided the user is supplied with a small set of straightforward parameters. We present a novel histogram reshaping technique which allows signific...

In this paper, a new technique for color reproduction based on color variation characteristics of digital camera under a dim light condition is proposed. Generally, photographers should adjust a camera exposure properly for obtaining an image with real color tone of subjects. Thus, in case of taking a picture under a dim light condition, the exposure time of a camera has to be relatively longer...

Liquid-crystal-displays (LCDs) and cathode-ray-tubes (CRTs) are compared with regard to color-calibration and color gamut. Applicability of common display calibration models to LCDs and CRTs is experimentally tested. Color-calibration accuracy, ease of calibration, and achievable color gamut are evaluated for the displays. An offset, matrix, and tone-response correction model is found to be sui...
