Abstract

The invention discloses an improved color image unsharp masking (USM) method, which comprises the following step of: overlaying an original image of each color channel of a color image on an edge gain to form an image of the color channel after the original image is sharpened, wherein each edge gain is taken from the color image or an image of the color channel with the richest hierarchy in a part serving as an important processing part of the color image. The color image processed by the method is relatively high in edge contrast and relatively clear.

Description

A kind of improved coloured image USM sharpening method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of computer processing method of coloured image, be specifically related to a kind of the improved method of traditional U SM treatment technology.
Background technology
The human information of transmitting has 70 % must pass through vision, and image is the important medium and the means of transmission information.Owing to reasons such as the influence of the restriction of dynamic range, illumination, image displays; Image quality in acquisition process can descend; Make that a lot of information in the original image can not be discerned by human eye, this just need utilize image enhancement technique, makes these information be convenient to human eye identification.
Image sharpening is a kind of in the figure image intensifying, is to utilize various mathematical methods and shift means to improve the contrast and the sharpness of image, with outstanding people or the interested part of other receiving systems.USM sharpening (Unsharp masking) is a kind of disposal route that comes from the traditional photography technology, through extracting image edge information, produces more black and whiter " edging " at the image outline place, thereby improves the visual sharpness of image.In order to improve image definition; What adopt usually is the method for vignette masking-out; Promptly be before the construction drawing picture; Obtain earlier a negative fuzzyyer than original image consciously, cover the photograph of being in step with to this fuzzy image as masking-out and original copy picture then, the result makes the image that obtains than not using masking-out more clear.Also be used in the modern computer image processing techniques in a principle.For discrete digital picture, typical USM method can reduce following formula:
Figure 556606DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
(1)
Figure 2012102280648100002DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
is original image in the formula;
Figure 2012102280648100002DEST_PATH_IMAGE003
is the image that blurs, and is original image is carried out the image that obtains after the smoothing processing.From formula (1); Pixel value after the processing is made up of two parts; First is original image; Second
Figure 2012102280648100002DEST_PATH_IMAGE004
be called the edge gain term, is to be the profile information that the source is extracted and strengthened with the original image.It more than is disposal route for gray level image.For coloured image, common sharpening method is to handle each Color Channel of image as a width of cloth gray-scale map, is example with the RGB image, shown in the disposal route formula (2):
(2)
When carrying out image sharpening with this traditional method, handle the image of each Color Channel of back and all be made up of edge gain of original image stack of passage, this edge gain is extracted from this channel image.
The image sharpening method of above-mentioned routine all uses identical method to handle to each Color Channel; Though can reach the purpose that makes clear picture; But can not play good sharpen effect to some image; As for being master's image with a certain tone, or when being the emphasis of processing with the part of image.Unbalanced situation can appear in each Color Channel level contrast of these images, and some often passage level contrasts are bigger, and rest channels then shows to such an extent that level is comparatively smooth.Its image detail of the diverse passage of level is more, and the edge contrast is also bigger, and the amount of edge of therefrom extracting is more; And for the little passage of differential variation, the amount of edge of therefrom obtaining then seldom.If this type of image is handled by conventional USM sharpening method, the edge that can make level change little passage strengthens very faint, causes the sharpen effect of coloured image not ideal enough.
Summary of the invention
To the objective of the invention is the defective that exists in the prior art in order solving, a kind of higher improved method of coloured image readability that makes to be provided.
In order to achieve the above object, the invention provides a kind of improved coloured image USM sharpening method, this method is formed edge gain of the original image of each Color Channel of coloured image stack the image of this Color Channel after the sharpening; The gain of each edge is all taken from the coloured image or as the image of the local middle-level the abundantest Color Channel of Color Image Processing emphasis.
The formula of above-mentioned USM sharpening method is following:
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE006
(3)
In the formula (3);
Figure 96916DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
is the original image of single Color Channel;
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE007
is the image of this Color Channel after the sharpening;
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE008
is in the said coloured image or as the original image of the local middle-level the abundantest Color Channel of said Color Image Processing emphasis;
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE009
for the abundantest Color Channel of this level being carried out the image after the Fuzzy Processing,
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE010
is the edge gain term of the abundantest Color Channel of this level.
Wherein, coloured image is for adopting the coloured image of rgb color pattern or cmyk color pattern.
The present invention compares prior art and has the following advantages: the edge gain through the Color Channel that level is the abundantest is added in each passage; Make the edge gain of the passage that level is more smooth all be taken from the bigger passage of another one contrast; Therefore can obtain bigger edge strengthens; And the edge of the bigger passage of this contrast strengthen also can with adopt existing USM sharpening method to strengthen the back to maintain an equal level, synthetic thus coloured image profile contrast is bigger, more clear.
