  • Patent number: 7127102
    Abstract: From profiles of an input color space and an output color space, the specific color data on respective color spaces are obtained, and a color space compression parameter is set based on each specific color data obtained. In other words, the color space compression parameter for appropriately converting data within the input color space into data within the output color space is derived from each specific color data. The color space compression processing (color matching) is performed on an absolute color space using the derived color space compression parameter so that it becomes possible to perform at a higher speed an appropriate color matching that takes into account the characteristics of the input color space and the output color space.

  • Patent number: 7092565
    Abstract: In the image processing of color image, color image data are received, and the color image data are corrected to maximize an overlapping quantity of histograms of the image data on a plurality of colors. Alternatively, color image data are received, and histograms of a plurality of colors on the color image data are calculated. Then, color deviation of image is corrected to maximize an overlapping quantity of the histograms. Alternatively, color image data are received, and color fog is detected on the color image data and a color of the color fog is determined. Then, the image data of the color on which color fog is detected is decreased. Alternatively, color fog is detected in an input color image data; and a color of the detected color fog is displayed. Alternatively, color fog of input image is corrected first, and contrast on the image is corrected next.

  • Patent number: 7043047
    Abstract: Specific information such as the type of performed image processing, and date is disassembled to bits, and the resulting bits are placed, e.g., in the least significant bit positions of pixels within processed image data. By this arrangement, when image processing is performed on original image data, it can be determined from processed image data what processing was executed on the image data.
