In this embodiment, input image Iin meets first color space, for example rgb color space.First transducer 22 is converted to second color space of brightness and color-separated in order to will import image Iin by rgb color space, and first transducer 22 can transmit the Lin to the first of an input brightness else processing module 10, second processing module 12 and the 3rd processing module 16 of each pixel by this.In practical application, second color space can be YCbCr, Yuv, YIQ, CIELab or Luv color space.
First processing module 10 is carried out a normalization (normalization) in order to the input brightness Lin to these a plurality of pixels and is handled, and then obtains other normalization brightness of each pixel.In a specific embodiment, this normalization is handled and is calculated described normalization brightness by following formula:
L nor = L in - L min L max - L min × 255 ;
L wherein NorRepresentative normalization brightness, Lin representative input brightness, L MinRepresent a minimum brightness of image, L MaxRepresent a high-high brightness of image.
Generally speaking, the pixel of digitized video is to store with 8, so the lightness distribution of each pixel is 0~255 GTG, just 256 GTGs.Yet, the brightness of natural image all be not equably branch in 256 GTGs.For example, the brightness than the shadow picture may be distributed in 150 below the GTG mostly.The advantage that normalization of the present invention is handled is and the brightness of whole image can be redistributed, and its distribution can broadlyer be handled so that carry out follow-up contrast.Because therefore 255 maximum gray values that GTG is 8 images handle the normalization brightness L of back gained through standardizing NorDistribution be 0~255 GTG.
First processing module 10 and in order to according to normalization brightness L NorAnd one first yield value function decision corresponding specification brightness L NorOne first yield value.In a specific embodiment, shown in Fig. 2 A, first storage element, 18 its interior one first tables of comparisons 180 that store.And, as shown in Figure 3A, first table of comparisons 180 writes down a plurality of normalization brightness LN and a plurality of first yield value GA that is produced according to this first yield value function in advance, and wherein each described normalization brightness LN corresponds respectively to the one among the described first yield value GA.So, obtain other normalization brightness LN of each pixel when first processing module 10 after, first processing module 10 can be searched first table of comparisons 180 to take out the corresponding first yield value GA and to export gain decision module 14 to.
Receive the input brightness Lin of these a plurality of pixels when second processing module 12 after, second processing module 12 is added up producing a luminance statistic data (lightness statistics) in order to the input brightness Lin to described pixel, and determines a plurality of critical luminances according to luminance statistic data.Second processing module 12 and in order to according to described critical luminance and one second yield value function decision a plurality of second yield values of corresponding described critical luminance respectively.
In a specific embodiment, shown in Fig. 2 A, second storage element, 20 its interior one second tables of comparisons 200 that store.A plurality of critical luminances and a plurality of second yield value that second table of comparisons, 200 records are produced according to this second yield value function, wherein each described critical luminance corresponds respectively to the one in described second yield value.By this, second processing module 12 can be searched second table of comparisons 200 with a plurality of second yield values of taking out corresponding described critical luminance respectively and export gain decision module 14 to.
Below will be by an example to further describe conception of the present invention.In this example, second processing module 12 can determine critical dark space (dark-area) brightness and critical clear zone (bright-area) brightness according to luminance statistic data.As shown in Figure 4, luminance statistic data can be expressed as a brightness statistics distribution map.The brightness value of transverse axis remarked pixel, and the longitudinal axis is represented the pairing number of pixels of each brightness value.
In a specific embodiment, the brightness of critical dark space is by in the statistical Butut, GTG by minimum begins the incremental calculation area, when the ratio of the area up between the GTG of minimum and a specific GTG and the gross area of statistical Butut arrives one first critical value (for example 3%), this specific GTG is promptly as the brightness of critical dark space; And the brightness of critical clear zone is by in the statistical Butut, GTG by maximum begins the reference area that successively decreases, when the ratio of the gross area of the GTG of maximum and area between another specific GTG and statistical Butut arrives one second critical value (for example 3%), this specific GTG is promptly as the brightness of critical clear zone.Be noted that first critical value and second critical value design according to the actual requirements.The quantity of pixel dark in the image is represented in the brightness of critical dark space, and pixel dark in the big more expression image of critical dark space brightness is few more; Otherwise the quantity of pixel bright in the image is represented in the brightness of critical clear zone, and pixel bright in the big more expression image of critical clear zone brightness is many more.
In addition, shown in Fig. 3 B, second table of comparisons 200 writes down a plurality of critical dark space brightness LL, a plurality of critical clear zone brightness LH, a plurality of dark space luminance gain value GBL and a plurality of clear zone luminance gain value GBH in advance, wherein each this critical dark space brightness LL is corresponding to the one among the described dark space luminance gain value GBL, and each this critical clear zone brightness LH is corresponding to the one among the described clear zone luminance gain value GBH.By this, second processing module 12 can be searched second table of comparisons 200 to take out corresponding respectively critical dark space brightness LL that is calculated and dark space luminance gain value GBL and the clear zone luminance gain value GBH of critical clear zone brightness LH.
Gain decision module 14 is in order to determine a target second yield value of corresponding specification brightness LN in described second yield value according to the pairing first yield value GA of the normalization brightness LN of each pixel.In practical application, gain decision module 14 can adopt a multiplexer (multiplexer).
In this embodiment, the scope of the first yield value GA can be between-1~1.Accept the function that above-mentioned example illustrates gain decision module 14, when the received first yield value GA of gain decision module 14 more than or equal to 0 the time, gain decision module 14 output clear zone luminance gain value GBH to the three processing modules 16; When the received first yield value GA of gain decision module 14 less than 0,14 output of gain decision module dark space luminance gain value GBL.
The 3rd processing module 16 produces a corresponding output brightness Lout who imports brightness Lin according to the input brightness Lin of each pixel, the pairing first yield value GA and pairing target second yield value, and the contrast of importing image Iin by this is adjusted.
See also Fig. 2 B.In a specific embodiment, the 3rd processing module 16 comprises first multiplier 160, adder 162 and second multiplier 164.First multiplier 160 is coupled to second processing module 12 and gain decision module 14, and adder 162 is coupled to first multiplier 160 and second multiplier 164.In addition, in order to help understand conception of the present invention, the input brightness Lin of each pixel can be adjusted by following arithmetic expression among the input image Iin:
G(i)=1+A(i)*B(j);
Wherein A (i) represents first yield value, and B (j) represents target second yield value, and A (i) * B (j) represents the 3rd yield value, and G (i) represents the 4th yield value.The scope of A (i) is between-1~1; The scope of B (j) is between 0~1; The scope of G (i) is between 0~2.Be noted that the scope of A (i), B (j) and G (i) designs according to the actual requirements, does not exceed with above-mentioned scope.
First multiplier 160 is in order to multiply by the first yield value A (i) target second yield value (being dark space luminance gain value or clear zone luminance gain value) B (j) to produce the 3rd yield value A (i) * B (j).Wherein, clear zone luminance gain value can be corresponding G (i) greater than 1 part, and dark space luminance gain value can be corresponding G (i) less than 1 part.Then, adder 162 is in order to be produced the 4th yield value G (i) with the 3rd yield value A (i) * B (j) mutually with a preset value.Preset value herein is set at 1, but not as limit.In principle, the size of preset value can be along with the first yield value A (i) and the target second yield value B (j) and is changed.Then, second multiplier 164 multiply by the 4th yield value G (i) to produce importing the output brightness Lout of brightness Lin in order to the input brightness Lin with each pixel.
After second multiplier 164 produces output brightness Lout, second transducer 24 will be imported image Iin and be converted to first color space (for example rgb color space) by second color space (for example Lab color space) and image output Iout is exported.
Can find out that by above arithmetic expression if the size of the target second yield value B (j) changes, the 4th last yield value G (i) also changes.Thus, can dynamically adjust the size of the 4th yield value G (i), to strengthen various contrasts by the content of input image Iin according to image processor 1 of the present invention with image of different Luminance Distribution.
The example that below will lift two kinds of contrasts of adjusting image by different way is to highlight the advantage of image processor 1 of the present invention.See also Fig. 5 A and Fig. 6 A.Fig. 5 A and Fig. 6 A show the brightness statistics histogram of the image of two kinds of needs adjustment contrasts respectively.With Fig. 5 A is example, desires suitably to strengthen the contrast of image, needs the part (for example 130~255 GTG between) at high brightness significantly to improve brightness, and reduces brightness a little in the part of low-light level (for example 0~130 GTG between).In order to adjust contrast according to this kind mode, gain decision module 14 can output valve be that 0.5 clear zone luminance gain value and value are 0.2 dark space luminance gain value.With Fig. 6 A is example, desires suitably to strengthen the contrast of image, needs to improve brightness a little in the part of high brightness, and significantly reduces brightness in the part of low-light level.
See also Fig. 5 B and Fig. 6 B.Fig. 5 B and Fig. 6 B show the image of Fig. 5 A and Fig. 6 A representative respectively and adjust the brightness curve analog result of gained later through image processor 1 of the present invention.Shown in Fig. 5 B, after adjusting, the brightness of hi-lite improves more yield value really; Otherwise shown in Fig. 6 B, the brightness of low-light level part significantly reduces really.The analog result of Fig. 5 B and Fig. 6 B confirms that image processor 1 of the present invention can be dynamically and flexibly adjust the contrast of image.
