Error diffusion is a procedure for generating high quality bilevel images from continuous-tone images but blurs the edge information. To solve this problem, we propose the improved method appling edge enhanced weights based on local characteristic of the original images. We consider edge information as local characteristic. First, we produce edges by appling 3$ imes$3 sobel operator to the original image. The edge is normalized from 0 to 1. Edge information weights are computed by using sinusoidal function and the normalized edge information. The edge enhanced weights are computed by using edge information weights multiplied input pixels. The proposed method is compared with conventional methods by measuring the edge correlation and quality of the recovered images from the halftoned images. The proposed method provides better quality than the conventional method due to the enhanced edge and represents efficiently the detail edge. Also, the proposed method is improved in edge representation than the conventional method.
