Claim Text:
1. A method, comprising: convolving a binarized object with a first 2D Gaussian mask based on a determined trap width and generating a convolved binarized object; comparing the convolved binarized object with the binarized object; determining that a first portion of the binarized object disappeared based on the comparison; and calculating and storing a first set of trapping parameters to be applied to the disappeared portion of the binarized object; down-sampling the binarized object to generate a second binarized object; convolving the second binarized object with a second 2D Gaussian mask based on the determined trap width; comparing the convolved second binarized object with the second binarized object; determining whether a second portion of the second binarized object disappeared based on the comparison; if it is determined that the second portion of the second binarized object disappeared, calculating and storing a second set of trapping parameters to be applied to the second disappeared portion of the second binarized object; and if is determined the second portion of the second binarized object did not disappear, determining whether additional down-sampling should be performed.
