    摘要： An image processing system that automatically optimizes the perceptual quality of images undergoing a series of selected image-processing operations. The automatic optimization capability allows the system to bypass expensive and time-consuming trial-and-error methods associated with interactive methods. The system consists of a set of image-processing operations, an architecture, and an intelligent control. These elements take into consideration profiles of sources from which the images are generated, profiles of intended applications, and the impact that image processing operations (individually or in concert) will have on perceived image quality. The analysis uses a body of relationships linking human perception of image quality with objective metrics (such as sharpness, grain, tone, and color) of image content. The relationships used are based upon extensive psychovisual testing, using human observers and photographic images. The intelligent control embodies the test results and thereby functions as a synthetic human observer. Controlling a collection of adjustable parameters in the requested image-processing operations, it works automatically to maximize subjective quality for the resulting picture. When optimal parameter values have been determined, the system then subjects the image data, itself, to the corresponding processing operations and provides an image to the end application. This is all achieved without operator intervention other than initially selecting the set of processing operations. The functionality of the system may be implemented in a variety of physical architectures, including computer workstations, and including communicating sets of discrete components in which the computations and control are distributed among the components.

    摘要： Device profiles conventionally describe properties of a device or element within a digital image processing system that capture, transform or render color components of an image. An improved device profile includes both chromatic characteristic information and spatial characteristic information. The device profile is generated by use of both chromatic and spatial characteristic functions within a model based image processing system to predict both color and spatial characteristics of a processed image. The device profile generally includes: first data for describing a device dependent transformation of color information content of the image; and second data for describing a device dependent transformation of spatial information content of the image. In a special case, the device profile could contain only spatial characteristic information.

    摘要： An imaging medium comprises a substrate carrying a color-change layer. This color-change layer comprises two layers or phases comprising two color-forming reagents which react upon heating to cause a change in the color of the layer. The color-change layer is deactivated by exposure to actinic radiation such that after deactivation it no longer undergoes its thermal color-change. The color-change layer is detachable from the substrate by heating to a temperature lower than required to cause the color change, so that upon contact of the imaging medium with a receiving sheet each individual pixel of the color-change layer may be left attached to the substrate, transferred to the receiving sheet but left uncolored, or transferred to the receiving sheet and colored to a color level determined by the energy used in the associated thermal print head element. The medium may be imaged by imagewise heating, followed by blanket exposure to deactivating actinic radiation, or by imagewise exposure to the actinic radiation, followed by heating of the whole color-change layer.

    摘要： An accurate digital representation of a color photograph can be obtained by proper registration of blue, green, and red images taken from a black-and-white photographic film having a unique structure including an antiabrasion layer, a first silver halide emulsion layer with silver grains which are sensitive to blue light, a filter layer being transmissive to a band of wavelengths corresponding to a given color other than blue, a timing layer for delaying penetration of processing fluids, a second silver halide emulsion layer with silver grains which are sensitive to the given color, and a base. The film excludes image dyes, dye developers or dye forming materials. The film also excludes components for emitting electromagnetic radiation at a wavelength different than a received wavelength.

    摘要： A novel method and apparatus is disclosed for electronically sensing a negative and a positive in a novel integral film structure of the instant development type using light of different wavelengths so as to produce reflected light from the negative and the positive which are indicative of the luminance characteristics and the chrominance characteristics of the image. The novel integral film structure has a filter which allows the negative to be scanned. Specifically, the filter transmits incident infrared radiation to which silver halide emulsion layers are sensitive and blocks the transmission of radiation in the range of wavelengths to which the silver halide emulsion layers are sensitive.
