Abstract:
Disclosed is method, system, and program for defining and administering a test to determine human perceptions of observable samples, such as printed text or images, sounds, motion pictures, etc. based on multiple factors. A displayable test building window includes input fields to receive input on at least one observable sample set according the multidimensional scaling experiment. Generated in a data gathering window is at least one perception input field for each observable sample set. The observer is capable of entering perception information in each input field concerning the observable samples. Observer perception input on the observable samples is received and stored. Statistical analysis is then performed on the entered perception input. A report is generated displaying the results of the multidimensional scaling calculations in the form of plots.

Abstract:
A method finds the color gamut of a source device and a destination device in their device-dependent color spaces, converts each color gamut to a device-independent color space, compares the color gamut of the source device to the color gamut of the destination device in the device-independent color space, and finds an optimized intermediate color range in the device-independent color space. Then, the method maps the colors from the color gamut of the source device in the device-independent color space to the optimized intermediate color range using a first gamut-mapping algorithm, maps the colors inside the optimized intermediate color range to the color gamut of the destination device in the device-independent color using a second gamut-mapping algorithm, and converts the colors in the color gamut of the destination device in the device-independent color space back to the color gamut of the destination device in the device-dependent color space.

Halftone Method And Apparatus That Provides Simultaneous, Multiple Lines Per Inch Screens
A halftone threshold matrix includes a plurality of submatrices, wherein a first group of the plurality of submatrices has a line screen frequency different from a second group of the plurality of submatrices. The halftone method and apparatus removes the restriction that at most one pel is turned on per basic cell for the next constant input level and allows the pels in some basic cells to be turned on much sooner that the corresponding positions in other basic cells. This creates a dominant low frequency line screen simultaneously with the higher frequency line screen of the other basic cells. The present invention also allows the basic cells inside the threshold matrix to have different shapes and sizes. Thus, the cells participating in the low frequency screen could be larger than the cells generating the higher frequency screen. For example, the low frequency screen's pleasing patterns can distract the eye from noticing less pleasing patterns in the high frequency grid and vice versa.

Abstract:
A digital halftoning technique for controlling a spot function is disclosed. A method for generating a spot for use in halftoning according to the present invention includes defining a spot function that combines two functions selected to provide a predetermined spot shape for use in a halftone cell and scaling the spot function using a scaling function that varies according to a value of a first and second spot function ordinate. Asymmetric modulation of spot functions is used to control the touching of adjacent spots, and to change the shape of the spots with the gray region.

The management of color presented at end point devices such as a display or printer is based on the implementation of a Color Management Resource (CMR). A CMR is an architected resource stored accessibly to a print server or other processor that is used to carry all of the color management information required to render a print file, document, page, or data object.
