Description

Self-adaptive infrared image and video vertical line removing method based on image blocking
Technical Field
The invention relates to an infrared digital image processing method, in particular to a self-adaptive infrared image and video vertical stripe removing method based on image blocking.
Background
In an infrared imaging system, the same column of pixels in a reading circuit of an infrared detector usually share the same output circuit, and due to the fact that bias voltages of the column output circuit and the row output circuit are not completely consistent, non-uniform noise with vertical stripes as main characteristics, namely vertical stripe noise, can be generated in an image. Because the vertical line noise belongs to one of the expressions of infrared nonuniformity, the traditional calibration or scene-based correction method can generate a certain inhibition effect on the vertical line noise, but the residual vertical line noise still has a larger visual effect on the image.
Besides the traditional infrared correction algorithm, the existing methods for removing the infrared vertical line noise mainly have two types:
the first type is a transformation-based method of striae erecta removal. The method needs to transform the original image data into a Fourier space domain or a wavelet domain, then carries out calibration of the vertical line noise, and finally carries out inverse domain transformation to achieve the purpose of noise removal.
The second type is a method for removing striae erecta based on feature statistics. The method filters the global image, uses the high-frequency information difference as vertical stripe non-uniformity characteristic data, and then uses the original image and the vertical stripe characteristic data to make difference so as to achieve the purpose of removing the vertical stripes. Because the extraction result of the vertical stripe features directly influences the effect of vertical stripe removal, if the vertical stripe feature extraction is incomplete, the vertical stripe residue is caused; if the extraction of the vertical stripe feature is excessive, the side effect of the edge of the normal image can be caused, and an 'edge artifact' is formed.
