Abstract

A method for processing a multi-channel image includes modification of adjusted pixel values of one or more pixels in a region of the multi-channel image, in accordance with a pre-specified signal pattern based on one or more parameters. A score is determined based on a ratio of a pixel difference value and a maximum pixel step value. The maximum pixel step value corresponds to modified pixel values of the one or more pixels in the region when the maximum pixel step value exceeds a threshold noise level for the region. False color is suppressed in a selected region of the multi-channel image based on the determined score when the false color is identified in the region.
