Abstract

See full text

An image processing system with a quality assurance feature is disclosed for determining the quality of the images being processed. The system includes a plurality of sections operating independently and concurrently to insure reliability. One section includes calculation of a quality assurance parameter dependent on the fill factor and the compression ratio determined before and after compression respectively. A second section includes histogram hardware for generating qualified histograms representative of foreground data, and background data transitions and a comparator for detecting overlap therebetween. A third section develops a histogram parameter based on the areas of the histograms and compares this parameter to the quality assurance parameter for concurrence. The system also includes autosizing means for detecting the borders of an image using fuzzy logic.
