Abstract:
One or more implementations access a digital image containing one or more bands. Adjacent bands of the one or more bands have a difference in color resulting in a contour between the adjacent bands. The one or more implementations apply an algorithm to at least a portion of the digital image for reducing visibility of a contour. The algorithm is based on a value representing the fraction of pixels in a region of the digital image having a particular color value.
