Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments of the present invention is provided to facilitate the understanding of the present invention by those skilled in the art, but it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments, and it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined and defined in the appended claims, and all matters produced by the invention using the inventive concept are protected.
As shown in fig. 1, a video noise reduction method based on video coding includes the following steps:
s1, carrying out video coding processing on the video to be denoised, and constructing a coding path corresponding to a denoising image block of the current image frame;
recording the motion vector of the similar image block corresponding to each noise-reduced image block in the coding path;
s2, according to the coding path, giving different mixing weights to each similar image block;
s3, according to the coding path, carrying out consistency check on the similar image blocks and the noise reduction image blocks to obtain corresponding image block masks;
s4, according to the mixed weight and the image block mask, performing image block fusion to complete one-frame video noise reduction;
s5, completing the video noise reduction of the continuous frames according to the steps S1-S4.
In the video encoding of step S1, the video frame may be divided into I frame, B frame, and P frame; wherein the I frame is a start frame; b frames can be encoded with reference to previous and subsequent frames; p frames can only be coded by referring to previous frames, and in the invention, H.264 coding is adopted, the first frame of the video is set as an I frame, and the use of P frames and B frames is allowed. Therefore, the step S1 is specifically:
s11, automatically dividing different areas of the video image into image blocks with different sizes according to the richness of the texture information, wherein the image blocks specifically comprise 16 × 16, 16 × 8, 8 × 16, 8 × 8, 8 × 4, 4 × 8 and 4 × 4;
s12, matching corresponding similar image blocks for each noise-reduced image block by calculating Euclidean distances between pixels of each image block;
s13, storing the motion vector and residual error information of each group of similar image blocks as a compressed code stream in a binary system mode, and realizing video coding;
in the above steps S12 and S13, in order to achieve the purpose of compression, other image blocks similar to the current image block need to be found by an exhaustive method within a frame and between frames, that is, the euclidean distance between pixels of the image block is calculated, and finally, the similar image block and corresponding motion vector information (motion vector, representing the displacement between two similar image blocks) can be matched for each image block, and the residual information (the residual between two image blocks) is stored as a compressed code stream in a binary form;
s14, uniformly dividing all similar image blocks into image blocks with the size smaller than the original size of the similar image blocks, and enabling each divided small image block to have the same motion vector with the original similar image block;
specifically, the divided small image blocks have a size of 4 × 4, enjoy a motion vector identical to that of the large image blocks, for example, an image block of 8 × 8 may be divided into 4 small image blocks of 4 × 4, which enjoy a motion vector of an image block of 8 × 8;
and S15, linking the motion vectors corresponding to all the divided similar image blocks, and representing the motion vectors by different colors to form corresponding coding paths.
As shown in fig. 2, each frame of the video is subdivided into uniform tiles, and each tile has other similar tiles, which are related by motion vectors (motion vectors). Therefore, starting from each image block needing noise reduction, a series of similar image blocks can be found through the guidance of motion vectors, and the motion vectors between the similar image blocks are linked to form a coding path (coding project); different colors represent different encoding paths.
In order to make the fusion more robust and have a larger coverage area, we extract the 12 × 12 image block for fusion, i.e. combine a plurality of small 4 × 4 image blocks into a large image block.
Because the similarity degrees between different image blocks and the image block to be denoised are different, different weights need to be given to the image blocks during fusion, and in the step S2, the index SSIM is used as a similarity measurement standard to give a mixed weight to the image block corresponding to the coding path;
mixing weight omega for each image blockbComprises the following steps:

influences brought by processing moving objects, such as ghost (left in fig. 3) and the like; the present invention proposes to reduce the influence by using a consistency check (consistency check), specifically setting a pixel-by-pixel comparison, so that step S3 specifically includes:
sequentially judging whether the difference D between the pixel value of each similar image block and the pixel value of the noise-reduced image block is greater than a set threshold value or not;
if yes, the similar image block is invalid and fails consistency check;
if not, the similar image block is valid and passes consistency check.
In performing the consistency check, a threshold of 20 is set, the size of the image patch mask is 12 × 12, and it is expressed as:
Figure BDA0002390673400000062
in the formula, K ═ 0 indicates that the current similar image block is invalid;
k1 is valid for the current similar image block.
In S4, the formula for image block fusion is:

n is the number of similar image blocks for noise reduction;

The invention has the beneficial effects that:
the video noise reduction method based on video coding provided by the invention realizes the fast noise reduction of the video by introducing the video coding information, integrates the advantages of reducing the size of a video file by video coding, accelerating the video transmission and reducing the video noise interference by video noise reduction, combines the two technologies, and realizes the fast and efficient video noise reduction process.
