STOIK Cameraphone Enhancer
	This program is designed to improve the quality of photos taken with cameraphones. STOIK Cameraphone Enhancer uses sophisticated proprietary algorithm to analyze quality of photos and applies different sets of specially designed filters to process different types of photos. This approach guarantees that while photos with pronounced defects will be effectively corrected with powerful filtering, the good quality photos will be less affected. And the best of all, the program is fully AUTOMATIC. It is very important to keep in mind that program is designed to correct typical defects found in cameraphone photos. Do not use it for processing high-quality hi-res graphics and photos. Please see below the description of types of images and defects which should be processed with this program. Operation --------- Thanks to the fully automatic algorithm, the interface of the program is very simple - you have just few necessary buttons to open, save, view, zoom and pan photos, one 'Enhance' button to apply enhancement processing, buttons for Undo/Redo and for moving to next or previous image in folder. The operation is very simple - click Open to load photo, click 'Enhance', then click Save, and if necessary, click Next button to load next image file from the folder. Help section of the program gives you advise on what types of photos can be enhanced with the program. What photos can be enhanced --------------------------- Typical defects which are corrected by STOIK Cameraphone Enhancer: Color defects: - low contrast - color disbalance - poor white balance - insufficient brightness - low frequency color artifacts Color defects are corrected without amplification of noise. Noise defects - CCD noise - JPEG-induced blocking and noise amplification - moire defects such as linear noise patterns Noise defects are corrected without degradation of contour sharpness Company: STOIK Imaging  Date Released: 14-07-2004  Program Size: 2714 KB License: Shareware Platform: Win98,WinME,WinXP,Windows2000

	STOIK Smart Resizer
	This program offers you various methods to resize digital photos including new STOIK Smart Resize algorithm which allows to enlarge digital images up to 1000% without loss of visual sharpness. You will find it useful for multiple tasks – from quality zooming to increasing resolution of digital photos to creation of good-looking photo thumbnails. To increase resolution of digital photo one needs to add pixels to those registered by camera or scanner CCD. Color values in newly added pixels are calculated by interpolating values of adjacent pixels in original photo. The quality of resizing depends on the algorithm used for interpolation, and with all conventional interpolation methods such as bilinear or bicubic, the interpolation results in blurred image. This program offers in addition to standard methods new Smart Resize algorithm developed by STOIK Imaging. This algorithm makes intelligent zooming possible through analysis of picture content for natural textures, contours, and line art, and application of adapted interpolation methods for specific areas. The result is the ability to enlarge digital images without loss of visual sharpness. One particular important implementation of the new algorithm is enlargement of cameraphone photos and photos taken with sub-megapixel cameras for resolution sufficient for quality prints. The algorithm also allows for creation of smart thumbnails – small copies of originals which could be effectively restored to original resolution with simple interpolation.

	STOIK Noise Autofix
	STOIK Noise Autofix v.1.6 implements the latest automatic noise reduction algorithm developed by STOIK Imaging. The program cleans noise in photos from different sources including digital cameras, cameraphones, and scanners. The main internal modules of the program are noise detector, noise analyzer and noise suppression filter. Noise detector finds noise and distinguishes it from natural image textures and fine details. It is based on statistical Bayesian classifier. It was pre-trained on most typical noise types and it can be trained additionally to take into account new specific noise patterns. Noise analyzer measures noise parameters, builds the noise profiles, and decides what filter parameters are optimal for the particular noise type according to the proprietary image quality criteria. The noise removal filter processes the image to reduce noise level providing balance between preserving image details and noise suppression. The filtering is performed using a multi – resolution image representation. During filtration the filter makes statistically optimal decision whether image element belongs to noise or not. Once the decision is made it applies different methods to process noise and image elements. This software also includes automatic Smart Sharpening filter as an optional post–processing tool. Featuree Fully automatic functions: - noise detection - noise profiling - noise profile analyzing and correction - filter adaptation to noise pattern based on image quality criteria - sharpening Optional manual fine tuning: - change noise detection/false alarms levels - adjust image details preservation level - adjust noise reduction amount Input/Output - Import 24- and 48-bit color JPEG, TIFF, PNG, BMP, PSD files - Output JPEG, TIFF, PNG, BMP, - EXIF data preservation - Drag-n-drop files from Explorer of copy-paste images from Clipboards - Assistant window - Batch processing Company: STOIK Imaging  Date Released: 21-03-2007  Program Size: 5640 KB License: Shareware Platform: WinXP,Windows2000
