PCT No. PCT/DK96/00278 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 6, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 6, 1998 PCT Filed Jun. 24, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/01150 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 9, 1997The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for the analysis and correction of colour casts in a digitally represented image. According to a preferred embodiment, the crominance contents of the image may be transformed by use of a Hough-transformation or the like transformation, wherein the line structures in the carthesic system of co-ordinates for the crominance content is transformed to a representation in a Hough-diagram in the form of a polar system of co-ordinates, since such line structure is hereby transformed into a point structure. The Hough-diagram is examined with a view to finding a cell in the diagram which has the highest value and the cell found is saved. subsequently cells are neutralized in the Hough-diagram within a predetermined angular distance, and the Hough-diagram is re-examined with a view to finding that diagram cell which, following neutralization, has the highest value. The cell found is saved and the cells saved which represent the maximae in the Hough-diagram are used to determine the intersecting points for lines in the crominance content system, and said intersecting points are used to evaluate the discolouration of the image. |
