Method for processing digital photographic image data that includes a method for the automatic detection of red-eye defects

摘要

A method for processing digital photographic image data includes a method for the automatic detection of red-eye defects. Before the image data are subjected to an elaborate process for the detection of red-eye defects, exclusion criteria are analyzed in the course of an exclusion process, whereby the criteria provide the information to definitively rule out the occurrence of red-eye defects. The red-eye detection process is not carried out if such exclusion criteria are fulfilled.
