Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1992. The standard program has now been adopted by countries around the world.
Error diffusion
Method of halftone (pseudo-grayscale) image processing which is based on black & white pixel binarization. It sums the
optical density of a pixel and its adjacent pixels, then relocates black pixels in the order of density to minimize the difference
between scanned and output images. By diffusing the errors onto other pixels, the density data of adjacent pixels can be
binarized. This function suppresses moire patterns of dotted halftone images such as newspapers, and reproduces its
grayscale gradation.
