Abstract

We introduce a simple and efficient method for coloring the gray-scale images into the color images with the existing color map or with creating a new one. The general problem of adding chromatic values to a gray-scale image has no exact solution, the current approach attempts to provide a method to minimize the amount of human labor required for this task, rather than choosing RGB colors to individual components, we convert the entire gray-scale image to color by creating a color map then the color map is to be used to color the gray scale image. We show that this simple method can be successfully applied to a variety of gray scale images and it can be applicable in deferent applications.
