Context aware color reduction
A method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium for color reduction based on image segmentation are described. The method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium may provide for segmenting an input image into a plurality of regions, assigning a weight to each region, identifying one or more colors for each of the regions, selecting a color palette based on the one or more colors for each of the regions and the corresponding weight for each of the regions, and performing a color reduction on the input image using the selected color palette to produce a color reduced image. The weight assigned to each region may depend on factors including relevance, prominence, focus, position, or any combination thereof.

This application discloses an image generation method and apparatus, and an electronic device, and relates to the field of image processing. The method includes: acquiring a spectrum image of a first scene by using a first camera that supports more photosensitive bands than a second camera, and acquiring a color image of a second scene by using a second camera, where both the color image and the spectrum image include a same target object; then, correcting a color cast of a reconstructed spectrum image of the color image based on the spectrum image, to acquire a plurality of corrected reconstructed spectrum images; and fusing the plurality of corrected reconstructed spectrum images to generate a corrected color image whose color is closer to a color of the second scene than a color of the color image.
Methods and systems for handling drifting of colors in printing scenarios
The disclosure discloses methods and systems for handling drifting of colors in printing. The method includes receiving a document including the image for printing, the image includes one or more gray and non-gray portions. An input from a user to selectively adjust the color of the gray portions of the image is received. The gray portions of the image are identified. Then, color values associated with the identified gray portions of the image are determined. Based on the user input, the determined color values associated with the gray portions of the image are selectively adjusted, without affecting non-gray color portions of the image to generate an updated image. The updated image is printed and the printed image includes adjusted color for the gray portions of the image such that gray color in the printed image is consistent with gray color of the image in the document.
Display management for high dynamic range images
Methods and systems for the display management of HDR video signals are presented. The mapping is based on tone mapping and color volume mapping which map an input signal with an input dynamic range and color volume to a target display with a target dynamic range and color volume. Both a global tone-mapping and precision-mapping methods using pyramid filtering are presented.
AUTOMATIC WHITE BALANCE CORRECTION FOR DIGITAL IMAGES USING MULTI-HYPOTHESIS CLASSIFICATION
A device for estimating a scene illumination color for a source image is configured to: determine a set of candidate illuminants and for each of the candidate illuminants, determine a respective correction of the source image; for each of the candidate illuminants, apply the respective correction to the source image to form a corresponding set of corrected images; for each corrected image from the set of corrected images, implement a trained data-driven model to estimate a respective probability of achromaticity of the respective corrected image; and based on the estimated probabilities of achromaticity for the set of corrected images, obtain a final estimate of the scene illumination color for the source image. This approach allows for the evaluation of multiple candidate illuminates to determine an estimate of the scene illumination color.
