Abstract
A system and a method for calculating a transformed image from a digital image and from formatted information related to defects of an appliance chain for image capture and/or restitution. The system and method provide for automatically determining the characteristic noise data from formatted information and/or from the digital image. The transformed image can therefore be corrected such that it does not exhibit any visible or annoying defects, especially defects related to noise, as regards its subsequent use. The system and method are applicable to photographic or video image processing, in optical devices, industrial controls, robotics, metrology, etc.
