Abstract: Technologies are generally described for the display of images by employing monotonic matrix factorization and sub-frame approximation image integration. In some examples, drive signals for a display device may be generated by iteratively applying a monotonic non-negative matrix factorization (NNMF) process to source image data. A given iteration of the monotonic NNMF process may result in approximation image data, partial sum image data, and residue image data, some or all of which may be further processed via subsequent iterations of the monotonic NNMF process. A generated approximation image data may then be displayed during a sub-frame time interval by selective activation of multiple row and column drivers. A series of such displayed approximation image data may effectively correspond to the original source image. In particular, the monotonic NNMF process may allow the generation of non-negative residue image data without the use of element reduction.
