In-place algorithm for image rotation

Tetsuo Asano; Shinnya Bitou; Mitsuo Motoki; Nobuaki Usui

This paper presents an algorithm for rotating a subimage in place without using any extra working array. Due to this constraint, we have to overwrite pixel values by interpolated values. Key ideas are local reliability test which determines whether interpolation at a pixel is carried out correctly without using interpolated values, and lazy interpolation which stores interpolated values in a region which is never used for output images and then fills in interpolated values after safety is guaranteed. It is shown that linear interpolation is always safely implemented. An extension to cubic interpolation is also discussed.

New method for generating superfine characters on flat panel displays

Satoshi Iwata; Nobuaki Usui; Shoji Suzuki

We developed a new method for character generation that makes reading super fine characters (under 5 points) on a flat panel display easy. We removed the jaggy edges of a character image by subdividing the character image dots into the dots which size is one third as small as the original ones. This method is based on two characteristics of the human eye. These characteristics allowed us to map the subdivided value into display sub pixels and adjust the digital counts of sub pixels. We conducted a subjectivity evaluation experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of this method and found that the method is effective.
