  • Abstract
    Harmonic colors are color sets which have special internal relationships that are aesthetically pleasing to the human eye. Color harmonization is to And the best sets of colors which will make the image more comfortable to human visions. An improved technique of best scheme searching for automatic color harmonization is proposed in this paper. By considering the predominant color in image and its contribution to the harmonic image, this paper formulates a ratio method to find the best scheme. Moreover this paper suggests some change to the strategy of color shifting, thus makes the algorithm more efficient. In addition, this paper utilizes the conventional technique but produces better results through a set of simple processing. It is shown that the efficiency and accuracy of the new technique is significantly better than the traditional technique.
