Imaging device color characterization including color look-up table construction via tensor decomposition

摘要

A model-based method and apparatus for characterizing the performance of a printing device comprising printing a target set of patches with the device and measuring device response when the target is set; compiling a LUT from the target set and measured response; and representing the LUT as a tensor. Tensor decomposition/parallel factor analysis is employed for compacting the tensor representation of the LUT.
