Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a new method for converting monochrome images to color images called colorization. There are various types of colorization, but most of the conventional methods of restoring based on color information given by the user needs to give color information to a relatively large range. Therefore, based on the technique called graph signal processing which has been actively studied in recent years and using region division , color information of important points on the image is appropriately increased, and the entire image is restored by using the color information . In this method, numerical experiments show that even when the user gives few color information, the entire image can be colorized with the image.
