Description

A kind of texture information fusion Multi-scale model forest digital picture halftoning method
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of image processing, and in particular to a kind of half tone image visual deformation reduction, clarity And contrast is high, the edge and details position of image are clear, complete, and whole visual effect is good, and have good blue noise The texture information of characteristic and good versatility merges Multi-scale model forest digital picture halftoning method.
Background technique
Digital halftone technology is exactly the two-values such as laser printer and laser platemaker seen in similar daily life Or in polychrome two-value equipment, the vision low-pass characteristic of human eye is simulated to copy the variation of the contrast of former multi-grey image, it will be former continuous The technology for the two-value half tone image changed the line map as being converted into suitable eye-observation.Digital halftone technology not only affects laser carving Carve and Laser Printed Image output quality, and with data information hide and digital watermark technology be also it is closely related, together When with the compression of medical image, image storage with the fields such as to transmit also inseparable.
Currently, digital halftone technology is generally divided into " error-diffusion method ", " dithering " and " iteration optimization method " three Major class.Numerous researchers both domestic and external in recent years to the improvement of halftoning method all by center of gravity be placed on error diffusion method and With iterative optimization method.For digital halftoning method overall study situation, the digital halftone side based on iteration optimization Although method be in the quality of the half tone image of generation it is best, efficiency is too low, and operating cost is higher, it is difficult to meet life The practical property demand produced.And error diffusion method is the amount by then will obtain to a certain processes pixel in gray level image Change error and passes to the untreated pixel of the neighborhood of pixels according to certain weight coefficient to carry out error diffusion.Error The effect for the bianry image that method of diffusion method obtains has a big promotion, and high-efficient, and operating cost is low, but generate Half tone image quality has two o'clock problem to overcome completely not yet, i.e.,:" in the smooth gradual change area in the half tone image of generation Undesired texture completely eliminates not yet ", and " phenomena such as fuzzy, discontinuous spy is easy to appear in the marginal portion of image It is not for the image method with complex edge ".
Classical error diffusion method surely belongs to Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion method(FLOYED R W, STEINBERG L.An adaptive algorithm for spatial grey scale.Society for Information Display,1976,17(2):75-77)(Hereinafter referred to as F-S error diffusion method)Although F-S error expands The half tone image general effect for dissipating method generation is preferable, and efficiency is also high;But this method does not go to consider image well Edge details characteristic and the half tone image of generation " worm effect " are more obvious.In addition, in view of the above deficiencies, Shiau- Fan(JENG-NAN SHIAU ,FAN Z. Set of easily implementable coefficients in error diffusion with reduced worm artifacts. Proceedings of SPIE-The International Society for Optical Engineering ,1996,2658:222-225)It is proposed will be in F-S error diffusion method 135 ° of support legs of error filtering core weighting coefficient rotate clockwise 45 °, are overlapped with horizontal line and symmetry is presented(Following letter Claim S-F error diffusion method).So that the error return range of S-F error diffusion method is bigger, it can be in broader angle model It works in enclosing, plays the role of reducing beam-shaping effect, worm effect can be effectively reduced.But S-F error diffused sheet Method without well consider image edge details characteristic so that half tone image generated is inadequate at edge and detail section Clearly.In addition, also proposed in the prior art, such as " noise modulated error diffusion method ", " edge B.W.Hwang enhances error Method of diffusion "(Hwang B W,Kang T H,Lee T S.Distortion-Free of General Information with Edge Enhanced Error Diffusion Halftoning.Computational Science and ITS Applicati- ons,International Conference(DBLP2004).Italy,2004)The methods of, although one Determining, " blur margin clear " and " undesired texture excessively obvious " are solved the problems, such as in half tone image in degree, but for For edge and the more complicated image of texture structure, still there can be some tiny edges and some important details exist The case where disappearing during halftone, and both methods does not go fully to consider human visual system to texture in image The sensitivity in region.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of reduction of half tone image visual deformation, clarity and contrast are high, image Edge and details position it is clear, complete, whole visual effect is good, and has good blue noise characteristic and good general Property texture information merge Multi-scale model forest digital picture halftoning method.
