Abstract

A method of processing digital images to reduce the effects of color bleeding. Chrominance components for pixels in a working window are determined and weights are assigned to the pixels in the working window. A chrominance correction for a center pixel in the working window is generated based on the chrominance components and the assigned weights. Fuzzy variables and thresholds may be applied to generate the assigned weights and the chrominance correction.
