ABSTRACT:
An image signal processing apparatus for converting input signal values representing density levels of successive picture elements of an image to corresponding bi-level signal values, whereby a conversion error for an object picture element is apportioned among a set of unprocessed adjacent picture elements, to update respective values of accumulated error. Each input signal value is compensated, prior to conversion, by a value derived from the total accumulated errors of the object picture element and these adjacent picture elements, while the conversion error is derived by subtracting from the bi-level output value a value obtained by compensating the input signal by the accumulated error for the object picture element.
