Abstract
Interblock distortion often appears on a boundary of pixel blocks in a reproduced image produced from compressed image data. The interblock distortion is eliminated by correcting a density distribution in the reproduced image. First, an average density (A.sub.ij) of a selected pixel block (B.sub.ij) is computed. Second, a standard deviation (.sigma..sub.ij) of a density distribution in the selected deviation is computed. If the standard deviation is equal to zero, correction value distributions (.DELTA.f.sub.m, .DELTA.f.sub.n) along a main scanning direction and a subscanning direction are obtained. Finally, corrected density distribution (f.sub.mn) is obtained as a sum of the average density and the correction value distributions.
