Abstract

See full text

This disclosure provides methods, apparatus, and computer programs encoded on computer storage media for reduced low tone pattern visibility. In one aspect, the disclosed methods receive an input image including a plurality of pixels, quantize the plurality of pixels, set half-tone image pixels corresponding to the portion of the input pixels that are below a crush threshold to a crushed value, and diffuse the quantization error resulting from the quantizing to half-tone image pixels other than the portion. In some implementations, the half-tone image pixels are then output to an output device such as an electronic display.
