Color Image Quality for Multi-Function Peripherals
نویسنده
چکیده
Color image quality is becoming an increasingly important factor in the consumer imaging industry. Users of imaging devices such as Multi-Function Peripherals (MFP) have increasing expectations to the quality of the reproduced images. In this paper we address the subject of color image quality from a practical point of view, and from the point of view of a provider of imaging technology for consumer MFPs. We show how the notion of color image quality is ultimately tied to the preferences of the end users. Because of this, practical quality evaluation experiments involving a panel of human observers is a very useful tool to quantify color image quality. As an illustration, we then describe a color image quality evaluation experiment, which was carried out in order to benchmark the copy function of two MFP devices.

A Novel Color Image Compression Method Using Eigenimages
Since the birth of multi–spectral imaging techniques, there has been a tendency to consider and process this new type of data as a set of parallel gray–scale images, instead of an ensemble of an n–D realization. Although, even now, some researchers make the same assumption, it is proved that using vector geometries leads to better results. In this paper, first a method is prop...
متن کاملA New Method for Color Gamut Mapping by Genetic Algorithm
To reproduce an image, it is necessary to map out of gamut colors of the image to destination gamut. It is clear that the best color gamut mapping introduces the perceptually closest image to the original one. In this study, a new color gamut mapping is purposed by the aid of Genetic Algorithm (GA). The color difference between the original and mapped images based on S-LAB formula was chosen as...
متن کاملA New Technique for Image Zooming Based on the Moving Least Squares
In this paper, a new method for gray-scale image and color zooming algorithm based on their local information is offered. In the proposed method, the unknown values of the new pixels on the image are computed by Moving Least Square (MLS) approximation based on both the quadratic spline and Gaussian-type weight functions. The numerical results showed that this method is more preferable to biline...

Reducing the number of colors in an image while preserving its quality, is of importance in many applications such as image analysis and compression. It also decreases memory and transmission bandwidth requirements. Moreover, classification of image colors is applicable in image segmentation and object detection and separation, as well as producing pseudo-color images. In this paper, the Kohene...
متن کاملClosed-loop color calibration for the home user
The proliferation of cheap color peripherals such as printers, scanners and digital cameras, has rendered them accessible to home users who can connect them to capture color images, and print these out on a color hard-copy device such as an ink-jet printer. Color consistency between the scanned original and the printed image is a well-known problem that has been approached by various techniques...
