Abstract

In this paper we present tests and results of an automatic color fading restoration process for digitized movies. The proposed color correction method is based on the ACE model, an unsupervised color equalization algorithm based on a perceptual approach and inspired by some mechanisms of the human visual system, This perceptual approach is local, robust and does not need any user region selection or any other user supervision. However the model has a small number of parameters that has to be set once before the filtering. The tests presented in this paper aim to study these parameters and find their effect on the final result.
