Abstract

The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for converting a color image of a higher-resolution to an image of a lower-resolution. With the method of the present invention, based on characteristics of spatial frequency responses of the human visual system, a lower-resolution image (116) is formed by separating a higher-resolution image (72) into a luminance channel (76) and chrominance channels (98 & 100) so as to carry out suitable sampling and filtering for each of the luminance channel (76) and the chrominance channels (98 & 100), then by combing the luminance channel (86) and the chrominance channels (111 & 114) after the sampling. As to the chrominance channels (98 & 100), traditional sub-sampling (101 & 103) is carried out to avoid chromatic aliasing, while sub-pixel sampling (80) is performed for the luminance channel (76) to improve resolution of luminance component.
