COLOR CORRECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A method for calibrating a digital imaging device for color correction, comprising:
- obtaining input color values and reference color values for respective color references, the input color values and reference color values being in a non-linear color space;
obtaining a noise evaluation image having a color noise for evaluating noise reduction; and
adjusting a plurality of color correction parameters based on the input color values, reference color values, and the noise evaluation image using a fitness function.

Abstract
A system and method for calibrating a digital imaging device for color correction is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining an input color value and a reference color value for each of a plurality of color references, as well as a noise evaluation image having a color noise for evaluating noise reduction, the input color values and reference color values being in a non-linear color space. A plurality of color correction parameters are determined as optimized based on evaluating a fitness function in the non-linear color space. The non-linear color space can be a CIE L*a*b* color space. The fitness function can include a color correction error and a noise amplification metric so as to reduce noise amplification during color correction.
