Title
Image sharpening by coupled nonlinear - Diffusion on the chromaticity - Brightness color representation
Abstract
Previously we presented a selective image sharpening method with a coupled nonlinear diffusion process, and it sharpens only blurred edges without enhancing noise. Our prototypal color-image sharp- ening methods were formulated on the linear color models, namely, the channel-by-channel model and the 3D vector model. Our proto- typal methods sharpen blurred color edges, but they do not neces- sarily enhance contrasts of signal variations in complex texture regions so well as in simple step-edge regions. To remedy the draw- back, we extend our coupled nonlinear-diffusion sharpening method to the nonlinear non-flat color model, namely, the chromaticity- brightness model, which is known to be closely relating to human color perception. We modify our time-evolution PDE's for the non- flat space of the chromaticity vector, and present its digital imple- mentations.
