Abstract
Methods and systems for updating mosaics of digital source images are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a method for updating a mosaic of digital source images includes segmenting the mosaic to regions, generating a plurality of region-statistics where each region-statistics correspond to image characteristics of one region, organizing the plurality of region-statistics in a database, and updating the mosaic using at least one target region-statistics from the organized plurality of region-statistics. Updating the mosaic can include color correcting. The method for updating a mosaic of digital source images can also includes optimizing the organized plurality of region-statistics, wherein the optimizing is based on one or more reference region-statistics from the organized plurality of region-statistics.
