Abstract:
From a statistical distribution of different color states in an image subdivided in pixels, pixel color states are selected by performing comparisons between predetermined values and values associated to per-pixel state probabilities. Errors (based on drifts between selected color states and per-pixel state probabilities) are diffused to per-pixel state probabilities of subsequent pixels.

Claim (Index 15):
A computer readable storage medium comprising computer readable instructions that, when executed by the computer, causes the computer to:\n input a statistical distribution of different color states for an image area subdivided in pixels; for at least some pixels of the image area, perform a halftoning operation which comprises:\n selecting a color state of a given pixel on the basis of the result of a comparison of a value associated to the per-pixel state probability of the color states of the given pixel with a given value; \n calculating an error between the selected color state and a per-pixel state probability of the color state for the given pixel; \n diffusing the error to the per-pixel state probability of at least one of subsequent pixels; and \n iteratively repeating the halftoning operation for the subsequent pixels.
