  • Patent number: 7023576
    Abstract: A digital image processing method for eliminating Moiré in a digital image divided into pixels holding pixel component values includes selecting a first pixel and defining a pixel window around the selected first pixel. Then, a set of pixels are identified which consist of pixels within the window that have pixel component values within a pixel component value range that is related to the selected first pixel. A pixel component value is calculated based on corresponding pixel component values of pixels in the set of pixels and then this calculated pixel component value is allocated to the selected first pixel.

  • Patent number: 6912004
    Abstract: A method and a system for processing images using interpolating. A variation value for different sets of pixels is determined, and the set of pixels with the highest correlation (lowest numeric value) is selected. A missing color at a given pixel is expressed in terms of the information contained in the selected set of pixels. If the variation value is below a certain threshold, due to noise or other factors, an alternative set of pixels using a different variation method may be selected. The missing color is estimated as a weighted sum of, e.g., the green samples divided by the weighted sum of, e.g., the red samples multiplied by the sampled value from the pixel to be estimated.
