Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a new resolution reduction method for halftone images. Recently, smartphones or tablet PCs have become widespread. When viewing comics on mobile devices as e-books, image resolution conversion is required, because there are various resolution devices. If a comic image is reduced with conventional resolution conversion methods using interpolating functions such as bicubic interpolation, moire that leads to deterioration in image quality is generated, because a comic image has halftones having periodic structures. In this paper, we propose a resolution reduction method for halftone images which preserve a periodic structure of original images. Experiments show that a moire is not generated with our proposed method, and the method is superior in image quality and computational time to the conventional bicubic interpolation.
