ABSTRACT:
Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a method of using hue to interpolate color pixel signals includes the following. For a particular pixel location in a subsampled color image, differences in hue are compared for two mutually orthogonal directions across the particular pixel location. A color signal value for that particular pixel location for a color plane other than the color plane of the pixel signal value in the subsampled color image of that location is computed. The computation includes relatively weighing the differences in hue values, the relative weights depending, at least in part, on the difference in hue value in one direction relative to the other.
