Description

Image binarization and display method, storage medium and terminal equipment
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of image and video processing, in particular to an image binarization and display method, a storage medium and terminal equipment.
Background
For the image, under the condition of unchanged size, the more the gray level is, the more the carried image information is, and more lifelike visual experience can be provided for people. However, in the process of storing, transmitting and processing images, the multi-gray-level images occupy more space, bandwidth and operation amount than the binary images, and in the case that the storage space, transmission bandwidth and operation capability of the device are limited, the number of multi-gray-level images that can be stored by the device, the number of multi-gray-level images that can be transmitted in a unit time, and the number of multi-gray-level images that can be processed in a unit time are also limited.
For example, common computer image formats often use 8 bits to quantify the gray value of each pixel, i.e., there may be 256 (2 8 ) Different levels. When storing a multi-gray-scale picture of size 5400×3600 pixels, it takes 18.5 megabytes of space; while storing a binary image of the same size, only 2.31 megabytes of space is required, since the gray value of each pixel only needs to be represented by 1 bit. It follows that the binary image consumes only 1/8 of the memory space of an 8-bit gray scale image of the same size. Thus, to improve image storage, transmissionAnd processing efficiency, even improving display rate, image binarization is widely used at present. Image binarization techniques generally convert a multi-gray level image into a binary image, which approximates the multi-gray level image.
DLP (Digital Light Processing) the projector uses image binarization and the core chip DMD (Digital Micromirror Device) of the projector is a kind of binarizing element, so that at each instant the DLP projector can only project a binarized pattern. In order to realize multi-gray-level image display, a DLP projector adopts a pulse width modulation method to decompose each multi-gray-level image into a plurality of binary images, further carries out time weighting according to a certain weight, and projects the plurality of binary images in sequence by utilizing the persistence of vision characteristic of human eyes so as to enable the human eyes to obtain the visual perception of the multi-gray-level images. This image display mode is also called time dithering. However, the time-dithering technique comes at the cost of reducing the display rate of the image. For example, a DMD with 768 x 1024 pixels may display binary images at a rate up to 22727 frames per second, but when 256 gray-scale images are displayed by time dithering techniques, the highest display rate of the images drops to 290 frames per second. The direct display of binary images is performed at a high rate, and if the binary images can be directly displayed on a binary display device (such as a DMD) and finally a multi-gray-scale image effect can be displayed, the advantage of the DMD that the binary images are rapidly projected can be fully utilized, so that the digital halftone technology has been developed.
Digital halftoning (Digital Halftoning Technology) is a technique that utilizes the visual characteristics of the human eye and the color rendering characteristics of images, and utilizes mathematical, computer, etc. tools to achieve optimal reproduction of multi-gray scale (or color multi-gray scale) images on binary (or multi-color binary) display devices. The technique can convert a high resolution multi-level image into a low resolution binary (or multi-valued) image. When viewed at a distance, the human eye treats the spatially close portion of the image as a whole. With this feature, the halftone image local average gray scale observed by the human eye approximates the local average gray scale value of the original image, thereby forming a continuous tone effect as a whole.
The error diffusion method is a digital half-tone technology with wider application, good performance and low processing complexity at present, and the principle is that image pixels are quantized according to a certain scanning path, pixel gray values are compared with a binary threshold value and are subjected to differential quantization, and quantization errors are diffused to unprocessed pixel gray values adjacent to the currently accessed pixel points in a certain proportion.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a conventional error diffusion-based binarization method. Assuming that the original multi-gray level image is of the order of l multi-gray levels, [ m ] in FIG. 1]Representing the currently accessed image pixel, im]Representing the gray value of the currently accessed pixel in the original multi-gray level image,

To ensure that the errors are all spread over the unprocessed pixels, the sum of the elements of the error diffusion weight matrix W is typically 1, i.e
Figure BDA0003101765040000033
However, the conventional error diffusion-based binarization method generally focuses on diffusing the error into the same image, which easily generates pseudo contours and forms structured noise in large-scale gray-scale similar image areas, so that the resolution of the image is reduced, and the display quality of the picture is further affected, and the visual effect is affected.
Disclosure of Invention
The first objective of the present invention is to solve the deficiencies of the prior art, and to provide an image binarization method for performing error diffusion simultaneously in and between frames, wherein the error is diffused not only to other pixel gray values of the same image, but also to a plurality of multi-gray level sub-images copied from an original multi-gray level image, so that the multi-gray level sub-images can approach the original multi-gray level image after being binarized in turn, and structured noise is not easy to form in an image area with large gray level similarity and pseudo contours are not easy to generate.
The second object of the present invention is to provide an image display method, in which the binary sub-images obtained by error diffusion are arranged continuously at equal intervals in time, and are displayed on a binary display device in a fast switching manner, so that the human eyes can generate the visual effect of watching multi-gray-level images and videos by using the persistence of vision characteristic of the human eyes and the color development characteristic of the images.

Here, the intra-frame error diffusion template refers to a weight matrix when quantization errors generated by pixels that have been thresholded currently propagate to pixels that are adjacent to pixels that have not been thresholded, and the weight values are elements in the weight matrix. The intra error diffusion template may be preset.
The number of pixels in the multi-gray level sub-image to be subjected to error diffusion depends on the number of weight values in the weight matrix, and the positions of the pixels in the multi-gray level sub-image to be subjected to error diffusion depend on row and column numbers of the weight values in the weight matrix.
The process of step S22 is specifically as follows:

Here, m weight values in the inter-frame error diffusion template refer to scale factors for sequentially diffusing quantization errors of each pixel to pixels of m multi-gray level sub-images that have not been binarized, and a sum of the m weight values in the inter-frame error diffusion template and all elements in the intra-frame error diffusion template is 1. The inter-frame error diffusion template may be preset. The number of the weight values determines the number of the multi-gray level sub-images which are positioned behind the current multi-gray level sub-image and need error diffusion.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to examples and drawings, but embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
Example 1
The present embodiment provides an image binarization method, as shown in fig. 3, including:
s1, copying an initial multi-gray level image to obtain k multi-gray level sub-images;
s2, performing a binarization algorithm based on error diffusion on the 1 st copied multi-gray level sub-image, and calculating a gray level difference value corresponding to each pair of pixels between the 1 st multi-gray level sub-image and the binarized sub-image, namely, a quantization error caused by thresholding of each pixel of the 1 st multi-gray level sub-image;
s3, performing a binarization algorithm based on error diffusion between frames: sequentially multiplying the quantization error by m weight values in an inter-frame error diffusion template, and adding the weighted E to the corresponding pixel gray values of m multi-gray level sub-images which are not binarized;
s4, performing binarization processing on the 2 nd to the k th multi-gray level sub-images in sequence according to the steps of performing error diffusion in the frames and between the frames, and finally, binarizing all the multi-gray level sub-images to obtain k binarized sub-images.
In order to better describe the method of the present embodiment, each step will be described below with a 256-level gray-scale natural image I as an initial image.
S1, FIG. 4 shows a 256-level gray level natural image I with 768×1024 pixels and a pixel gray value range of [0,255]]. Let k=4, duplicate 4 copies of the original multi-gray level image I to obtain 4 multi-gray levelsSub-image I 1 、I 2 、I 3 I 4
S2, setting a binarization threshold T to be 128, wherein an intra-frame error diffusion template is shown in FIG. 5, an error correction coefficient beta is 0.3, and an error correction formula is as follows:
Figure BDA0003101765040000081
let the currently accessed pixel be (x, y), Q be its gray value, Q ε [0,255].
For 1 st multiple gray level sub-image I 1 The pixel of the (C) is scanned line by line from the upper left corner to the right, the gray value Q of the currently accessed pixel is compared with the binarization threshold value 128, if the gray value Q of the pixel is more than or equal to 128, the gray value of the pixel (x, y) is set to 255, otherwise, is set to 0, and the binarized gray value of the pixel is recorded as
Figure BDA0003101765040000091
Then, calculating the quantization error E of the current pixel (x, y) caused by thresholding, E being the difference value of the pixel point before and after thresholding
Figure BDA0003101765040000092
Correcting the error by adopting an error correction formula, wherein the corrected error
Figure BDA0003101765040000094
The weighted error values are superimposed on the neighboring pixel gray values according to the weight distribution on the intra error diffusion template (solid black dots representing the currently accessed pixel) of fig. 5. As can be seen from fig. 5, the error diffusion range can reach the right two columns of the column of the currently accessed pixel and the lower two rows of the row of the currently accessed pixel.
Thresholding is carried out on pixel points by pixel points according to the method until a multi-gray level sub-image I 1 All pixel points in the array are thresholded to obtain a multi-gray level sub-image I 1 Corresponding binary image
Figure BDA0003101765040000093
In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the pixel gray value distribution of the multi-gray level sub-image currently binarized is as shown in table 1:
TABLE 1
255 255 0 0 0 255 0
0 0 255 255 0 255 255
255 0 0 140 94 142 159
161 150 139 108 147 167 151
147 130 142 157 169 172 149
155 147 159 134 157 139 137
If the gray value of the currently accessed pixel is 140 (the pixel in front of the pixel has been binarized), since the gray value is greater than 128, the gray value of the pixel is set to 255 after binarization, the error e=140-255, and the error is corrected to be diffused to the pixels at the right side and below. For example, here, the correction error is spread to the 1 st pixel gray value on the right:
Figure BDA0003101765040000101
the 1 st pixel gray value on the right is weighted and added with the corrected error to become:
Figure BDA0003101765040000102
similarly, when the error is corrected and then spread to the leftmost pixel gray value of the next row, the corrected error is
Figure BDA0003101765040000103
The leftmost pixel gray value of the next row becomes:
Figure BDA0003101765040000104
thus, after the intra error diffusion process, the image pixel gray value distribution is as shown in table 2:
TABLE 2
255 255 0 0 0 255 0

155 147 159 134 157 139 137

Here, assume I 1 The gray value of the pixel corresponding to the fourth column of the fifth row is

The modified quantization error is-107 due to sub-image I 1 、I 2 、I 3 、I 4 Is copied by I, so I 2 、I 3 、I 4 Initializing the gray value of the pixel corresponding to the fourth column of the fifth row to 157, passing through I 1 After error propagation of I 2 、I 3 、I 4 The gray value of the pixel corresponding to the fourth column of the fifth row is corrected as

As shown in fig. 8, the multi-gray-level image obtained by averaging the 4 binarized sub-images is very similar to the initial image of fig. 4, and it can be seen that the visual effect of using the plurality of binarized sub-images to approximate the multi-gray-level image can be achieved by using the method of the embodiment.
In addition, the embodiment also discloses an image display method, which obtains 4 pieces of binarized sub-images (a) - (d) shown in fig. 7 through the image binarization method, continuously arranges the 4 pieces of binarized sub-images at equal intervals in time, and displays the images on a binarized high-speed display device through fast switching, that is, the binarized sub-images are displayed in a constant-speed switching manner, so that human eyes can generate visual effects of watching multi-gray-level images and videos by utilizing the persistence of vision and the color development characteristic of the images, and high-definition and high-speed multi-gray-level images and videos are displayed.
