Abstract
A method of processing image data in a composite image is described. The method comprises analyzing a multi-level blending of images of the composite image; identifying sharp transition boundary areas of the composite image; applying less attenuation for higher levels of multi-level blending of the composite image in the sharp transition boundary areas; and applying more attenuation for lower levels of multi-level blending of the composite image in the sharp transition boundary areas.

A method of processing image data in a composite image, the method comprising:
- analyzing a multi-level blending of images of the composite image;
- identifying sharp transition boundary areas of the composite image;
- applying less attenuation, using a processor, for higher levels of multi-level blending of the composite image in the sharp transition boundary areas;
- and
- applying more attenuation, using the processor, for lower levels of multi-level blending of the composite image in the sharp transition boundary areas.
A device for enhancing quality of an image, the device comprising:
- a processor circuit configured to:
