ABSTRACT:
A color balance adjusting apparatus for adjusting color imbalance due to the difference in color temperature between a preferable standard illuminant and an illuminant under which a color image is obtained, thereby making the colors of the image substantially identical to those obtained under the preferable standard illuminant. This apparatus comprises a decorrelating neural network for receiving three color component signals correlating with one another and indicative of an image, and minimizing the correlation thereamong, the network having learned so as to minimize the correlation among signals indicative of an image obtained under an illuminant, and a converter for mapping the output of the decorrelating means, into a space of the input image signals, with the use of the inverse matrix of a transfer matrix of the neural network having learned under the preferable standard illuminant. The output of the converter is generated as a signal obtained after white balance adjusting.
