However, researchers in Israel have come up with a new way of colorizing images just by making a few scribbles. The technique works on the premise that 'neighboring pixels in space-time that have similar intensities should have similar colors,' and also allows colorization of videos by 'marking' about one in ten frames."

The MPEG standard, knowing that porn tends to drive the industry, actually contains several optimizations for drawing things such as skin tones and nipples. Really.
