Class Information
Number: 358/3.05
Name: Facsimile and static presentation processing > Static presentation processing (e.g., processing data for printer, etc.) > Attribute control > Multi-level image reproduction (e.g., gray level reproduction) > Error diffusion in gray level or halftone generation > Adaptive error diffusion
Description: Subject matter wherein the distribution of the thresholding or quantization error is based on a property of the continuous tone or multi-level (gray level) image, results of previous thresholding or quantization, or other factors, to improve the visual representation of the reproduced gray level image using the resulting gray levels or halftones.
