Constrained reconstruction model to restore missing wedge from multiple observations with limited range projections

A method for image reconstruction from plural copies, the method including receiving a series of measured projections p.sub.i of a target object h and associated background; iteratively reconstructing images h.sub.i(k) of the target object and images g.sub.i(k) of the background of the target object for each member i of the series of the measured projections p.sub.i over plural iterations k; and generating a final image of the target object h, based on the reconstructed images h.sub.i, when a set condition is met. The index i describes how many elements are in the series of projections p.sub.i, and iteration k indicates how many times the reconstruction of the image target is performed.

Adaptive recoloring

Adaptive recoloring of displayed digital content automatically pursues specified active color palette goals while adhering to specified active color palette constraints. Source code editors, word processors, and other programs are enhanced by adaptive recoloring. Recoloring rules may specify coloring roles, colors, tolerances, color spaces, metrics, and other criteria. Recoloring may be triggered by a zoom or another change in user focus, by a brightness change, a screen size change, by notice of a user perception change, or by another event. Recoloring improves text legibility, assists user focus, compensates for differences in color perception and emotional impact, and increases color availability without degrading usability, for example. Transitions between words or other display items can be heightened. Branding colors may be preserved, in logos and text. Automatic selections may be overridden by a user command or by interactive tuning, with warnings given as appropriate.
