Paper Abstract
Color noise in the form of clusters of color non-uniformity is a major negative quality factor in color images. This type
of noise is significantly more pronounced in CMOS cameras with increasingly smaller pixel sizes (e.g., 1.75μm and
1.4μm pixel sizes). This paper identifies and quantifies temporal noise as the main factor for this type of noise. As well,
it is shown how differences in R/G/B responses and as well possible presence of R/G/B-response non-linearity can
exacerbate color-blotch noise. Furthermore, it is shown how run-time averaging can effectively remove this noise (to a
large extent) from a color image-if capture condition permits.
