Abstract:
Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for determining whether to convert image data in an input color space to an output color space in a transform domain or real domain. An input block of coefficients in an input color space is generated, wherein the input block includes a first type coefficient and a plurality of second type coefficients. The first type coefficient in the input block is converted to an output value in an output color space. A determination is made as to whether real domain processing is required. The input block is converted in a transform domain to an output block of coefficients in the transform domain in an output color space in response to determining that the output value does not require real domain processing.
Abstract:
A system and program for decoding cached compressed data. Compressed data is received and decoded. An error is detected while decoding a first location in the compressed data. A reentry data set is accessed having a pointer to a second location in the compressed data following the first location and decoding information that enables decoding to start from the second location. The second location in the compressed data is accessed and the decoding information in the accessed reentry data set is used to continue decoding the compressed data from the second location.

An input block of coefficients in an input color space is generated, wherein the input block includes a first type coefficient and a plurality of second type coefficients. The first type coefficient in the input block is converted to an output value in an output color space. The output value is used to determine a scaling factor for the second type coefficients. The scaling factor is applied to the second type coefficients to determine second type coefficients in the output color space. A component output block of coefficients in the output color space is formed from the output value for the first type coefficient and the determined second type coefficients in the output color space.

Abstract:
A method, system, and data structure for the scaling down of data is provided. At least two blocks of transformed data samples representing at least two blocks of original data samples are received. One of at least two tables of constants is selected wherein each table of constants is capable of reducing the number of transformed data samples by a different factor. The constants taken from the selected table are applied to the at least two blocks of transformed data samples to produce one block of transformed data samples representing one block of final data samples. The data is processed one dimension at a time by multiplying the data in one dimension with selected constants taken from previously developed tables corresponding to the desired scale down factor. Scaling down by different factors in each dimension as well as scaling down in one dimension and scaling up in the other dimension may be achieved. In addition, the de-quantization of the quantized transform coefficients may be accomplished by pre-multiplication of the selected constants when the quantization values are known. In a similar way the re-quantization may be accomplished by a pre-division of the selected constants. Both de-quantization and re-quantization may be combined when the input quantized transform coefficients and output quantized transform coefficients are desired.

Abstract:
Methods and systems herein provide for verification of a calibration of a printer utilizing a hand-held mobile device. In one embodiment, a mobile device includes a camera that captures image data of a calibration target printed by a printing system. The image data is captured in an uncontrolled environment. The mobile device further includes a processor that determines a difference between the uncontrolled environment where the image data was captured and a controlled environment, and adjusts the image data based on the difference. The mobile device then determines whether the printing system is out of calibration based on the adjusted image data.
Abstract:
Non integer scaling of images to reduce artifacts is presented herein. One embodiment includes determining a scaling resolution based on a pixel resolution of the image and a pixel resolution of an output device (i.e., factors of the scaling resolution). The image is converted to the scaling resolution to change (e.g., increase) the pixels of the image by the first factor. A grid is generated to scale the converted image. The grid has a number of sections defined according to the second factor times the pixel resolution of an output device. The converted image is sectioned according to the grid. Each section of the grid includes an integer number of pixels of the converted image. The color values of the pixels of the converted image are averaged within each section of the grid to compute a single color value for each section of the grid and scale the image.

Methods and systems herein provide for calibrating for a plurality of different paper types. In one embodiment, a system for calibrating a printer includes a measurement module operable to detect colors printed on a first tangible medium by the printer and convert the detected colors to a detected color characterization. The system also includes a storage module operable to store a calibration file. The calibration file includes color characterizations of a plurality of different tangible mediums and each color characterization includes color measurements for one of the plurality of different tangible mediums obtained from the printer via the measurement module when the printer is calibrated. The system also includes a calibration module operable to compare the detected color characterization to at least two color characterizations of the calibration file and determine an adjustment to an output color scheme of the printer based on the comparison to calibrate the printer.
