A Java-based system for remote correction of CRT color distortion

Calibration of the output device used for the reproduction of digital colour images (a color CRT in most cases) can either be achieved through conventional techniques involving mathematical modeling of the CRT, or through a novel neural-network-based scheme, introduced in this work. A Java-based system for CRT remote calibration is also presented, which allows the user to get rid of the computational burden necessary to train the neural network, or to estimate the parameters of the CRT model by relying on a set of measurements of the colours displayed by the CRT. Measurements can be avoided as well, by storing calibration data relative to a wide variety of CRTs and by using them to calibrate monitors with similar characteristics.
