US 2016/0104303 A1 · IMAGE-BASED COLOR PALETTE GENERATION

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for generating an image-based color palette based on a color image. A color palette can be a collection of representative colors each associated with a weight or other metadata. A color palette may be generated based on palette generation criteria, which may facilitate or control a palette generation process. Illustratively, the palette generation process may include image pre-processing, color distribution generation, representative color identification, palette candidate generation and palette determination. Representative colors with associated weight can be identified from a distribution of colors depicted by the color image, multiple palette candidates corresponding to the same color image can be generated based on various palette generation criteria, and a color palette can be identified therefrom.

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

a data store configured to store computer-executable instructions;
and
a hardware processor in communication with the data store, the hardware processor configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to at least:
select a first subset of colors from a color distribution corresponding to a color image;
determine a representative color to be a color representing the selected first subset of colors;
associate a color weight to the determined representative color based, at least in part, on a collective weight measure associated with the identified first subset of colors;
and
generate a color palette for the color image based, at least in part, on the representative color and the associated color weight.
