Description

Image noise reduction method, electronic device and storage medium

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of image processing technologies, and in particular, to an image noise reduction method, an electronic device, and a storage medium.

Background

In image display devices such as televisions, cameras, and displays, improvement of image quality is an important issue in the development of image video technology. In the actual video or image generation process, various mixed noise such as white noise, interference noise, photon shot noise, quantization noise and the like are inevitably introduced into the video in the acquisition process due to the influence of various environments and the like. The good video image sequence denoising technology can be used as a preprocessor embedded into a video coding system, saves video transmission bandwidth and storage space, can be applied to post-processing of video images, and improves subjective image quality.

In order to effectively remove noise such as white noise, interference noise, photon shot noise and the like, two types of techniques of spatial domain and transform domain are generally adopted in the related art to be developed. Spatial denoising can utilize the spatial correlation and noise characteristics of images to reduce noise, but cannot accurately distinguish noise from texture, so that unclean denoising or detail blurring is easy to cause. The time domain denoising mainly removes noise through time correlation, and is divided into two modes of denoising of motion detection and motion compensation. The motion compensation method can solve the problem of motion blur, but has huge calculation amount, and most of devices cannot run in real time at present, so that the design of a time domain noise reduction algorithm with balanced effect and complexity becomes particularly critical.

Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, step S101 may include, but is not limited to including, steps S201 through S205:

Step S201, selecting a current pixel point from an image to be detected, and acquiring pixel coordinates of the current pixel point;

it should be noted that, the pixel coordinates are used to represent the position information of the current pixel point in the image to be measured.

In some embodiments, a current pixel point to be tested is selected from the image to be tested, and a pixel coordinate of the current pixel point in the image to be tested is obtained, so that subsequent judgment of the noise type is facilitated.

It should be noted that, the current pixel point is any pixel point randomly selected on the image to be measured, and the embodiment is not limited specifically.

Step S202, determining a plurality of adjacent pixel points around the current pixel point according to the pixel coordinates;

in some embodiments, coordinates of pixel points in all images to be measured are obtained, distances between all coordinates and the pixel coordinates are calculated, and a plurality of adjacent pixel points around the current pixel point are determined so as to analyze high-frequency components in the images to be measured and judge whether amplitude changes occur in the pixel points.

Step S203, combining adjacent pixel points, and carrying out mean value calculation on the combined adjacent pixel points to obtain a plurality of azimuth mean values;

in some embodiments, adjacent pixel points are combined according to coordinates of the adjacent pixel points, and average value calculation is performed on the combined adjacent pixel points, so that average values of all directions around the current pixel point can be accurately calculated, a plurality of azimuth average values are obtained, and subsequent judgment of noise types is facilitated.

It should be noted that, in the process of combining the adjacent pixel points, the positional relationship between each adjacent pixel point and the current pixel point may be determined according to coordinates, and then the adjacent pixel points in the same direction are combined to obtain a mean value of a plurality of directions, where each direction in the embodiment may include four directions including east, south, west and north, and may be subdivided into eight directions including east, south, west, north, northeast, southeast, northwest and southwest; or dividing according to the angles of the adjacent pixel points and the current pixel point, etc., the embodiment is not particularly limited.

Step S204, comparing the pixel value of the current pixel point with a plurality of azimuth mean values to obtain a plurality of neighborhood difference values;

in some embodiments, the pixel value of the current pixel point is compared with the azimuth mean values in a difference manner, so that the difference value between the current pixel point and the azimuth mean values is determined, a plurality of neighborhood difference values are obtained, and whether the current pixel point is polluted by impact noise or not is conveniently determined later.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment, by calculating the mean difference between the current pixel point and four surrounding direction points, the neighborhood difference is shown in the following formula:

；

Wherein, the liquid crystal display device comprises a liquid crystal display device,for the current pixel point, +.>、/>、/>And +.>The azimuth mean values of the four directions are respectively.

Step S205, detecting the noise type of the image to be detected according to the plurality of neighborhood difference values and the preset pixel threshold value.

In some embodiments, the noise type of the image to be detected is detected according to the plurality of neighborhood difference values and the preset pixel threshold value, so that the noise type in the image to be detected is determined, the accurate identification of the noise type is realized, and the filtering is more targeted.

In steps S401 to S403 of some embodiments, when all the neighborhood differences are greater than the pixel threshold, it is indicated that the current pixel point is greatly different from the neighborhood thereof, it is determined that the impact noise exists in the image to be measured, then, the average value of all the azimuth averages is calculated, the pixel value of the current pixel point is updated according to the average value, and the value is replaced by the surrounding average value, so as to avoid interference of the impact noise.

It will be appreciated that impulse noise typically appears as a high frequency component in the frequency domain, as its waveform changes suddenly, containing rapid amplitude changes. The non-impact noise contains more low-frequency components, and the waveform change is relatively gentle, so the embodiment can judge the noise type through the difference of the mean value of the current pixel point and the surrounding pixel points.

Referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments, step S102 may include, but is not limited to including, step S501 to step S505:

Step S502, generating a first filtering result according to the brightness filtering result and the chromaticity filtering result;

in some embodiments, the first filtering result is generated according to the luminance filtering result and the chrominance filtering result, so that spatial filtering on luminance and chrominance of the current frame is achieved, spatial correlation in an image can be captured, and detailed information such as edges and textures can be reserved.

Step S503, non-local average filtering is carried out on the image to be detected in the search window according to a preset matching window, and an absolute difference weighted average of pixels in the search window is obtained;

in some embodiments, a matching window with a preset size is set, non-local average filtering is performed on an image to be detected in the search window according to the size of the matching window, and an absolute difference weighted average of pixels in the search window is obtained, so that noise level can be effectively reduced, random noise points and texture distortion in the image can be reduced, noise suppression and detail reservation can be balanced better, and a clearer and more natural image result can be generated.

It should be noted that, the area of the matching window is smaller than the area of the search window, for example, the search window is 5*5, and the matching window is 3*3; the search window is 6*6, the matching window is 2×2, etc., and the embodiment is not particularly limited.

It will be appreciated that the specific non-local mean filtering process is as follows:

Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is an overall flowchart of an image denoising method according to another embodiment of the present invention, including but not limited to steps S601 to S603:

it should be noted that steps S601 to S603 occur before the mixed filter value is obtained.

Step S601, calculating a horizontal gradient value and a vertical gradient value of an image to be detected in the process of carrying out low-pass filtering on the image to be detected;

；

step S603, determining a texture weight value of the image to be detected based on the gradient index value, the preset weight threshold value, the preset gradient gain value and the preset offset value.

In some embodiments, the texture weight value of the image to be measured is determined based on the gradient index value, the preset weight threshold value, the preset gradient gain value and the preset offset value, so that the motion judgment is corrected, the influence of redundant information is reduced, different scenes can be adapted, and the situation that the edge is counteracted in the motion process is avoided.

The process of calculating the texture weight value specifically comprises the following steps:

；

for texture weight value, ++>For the weight threshold, ++>For gradient index value ++>For the value of the gradient gain,is an offset value.

It can be understood that the smaller the gaussian gradient value is, the larger the flat region weight value is, the closer to the flat region is, and the more the flat region is, and the edge region is, so that the accurate detection of the image edge of the image to be detected can be realized.

It should be noted that the gradient gain value in this embodiment is used to adjust the weight of the texture feature, and is also used to determine the importance of the texture feature in a certain region based on the local gradient intensity in the image to be measured; the weight threshold is used for limiting the weight value range of the texture features, and by setting the weight threshold, which texture features are reserved or removed can be controlled; the offset value is used for calculating texture features in different directions, detecting the texture directions in the image, adjusting the perception range of the texture features by setting different offset values, and calculating the texture weight value by the parameters so as to adapt to different texture features and task requirements, thereby improving the performance and adaptability of the algorithm.

Referring to fig. 7, in some embodiments, step S105 may include, but is not limited to including, steps S701 through S704:

Step S701, comparing the brightness difference value with a preset dynamic and static threshold value;

The specific brightness difference calculation process is as follows:

；

for the target filtered value of the current pixel, < >>Filtering values for samples of a frame preceding the current frame, for samples of the current frame>Is the luminance difference.

Step S702, when the brightness difference value is greater than or equal to the dynamic and static threshold value, determining that the image to be detected is in a motion state;

in some embodiments, when the brightness difference value is greater than or equal to the dynamic and static threshold value, the image to be detected is determined to be in a motion state, and when the brightness difference value is less than the dynamic and static threshold value, the image to be detected is determined to be in a static state, so that the motion state of the image to be detected is determined.

Step S703, determining a moving value of the image to be detected based on a preset dynamic and static transition slope, a brightness difference value and a dynamic and static threshold value;

In some embodiments, the movement value of the image to be measured is determined based on a preset dynamic and static transition slope, a brightness difference value and a dynamic and static threshold value, so that abrupt switching or flaws between dynamic and static areas are reduced, a smooth transition effect is realized, and visual continuity and smoothness are improved.

Wherein the movement value is expressed as follows:

；

for the movement value +.>For the brightness difference +.>For dynamic and static threshold value->Is the slope of the dynamic and static transition.

Step S704, determining motion information of the image to be detected according to the motion value and the texture weight value.

Referring to fig. 8, in some embodiments, step S106 may include, but is not limited to including, step S801 to step S805:

step S801, determining sample motion information of a frame previous to a current frame corresponding to the motion information, and calculating motion information weight of the sample motion information;

in some embodiments, sample motion information of a frame before a current frame corresponding to the motion information is determined to determine frame changes of an image to be detected, capture of details is achieved, and motion information weights of the sample motion information are calculated, so that the motion information of the frame before and after is associated, motion is smoother, tailing risk is reduced, and convergence is faster.

Step S802, calculating a motion time domain filtering result of an image to be detected according to sample motion information, motion information and motion information weight;

in some embodiments, a motion time domain filtering result of the image to be detected is calculated according to the sample motion information, the motion information and the motion information weight, so that the noise reduction strength and the edge protection fusion self-adaption are achieved. Noise immunity, edge protection, delay, front and back frame motion information and smooth multidimensional combination are achieved in the dynamic and static judgment process, so that the dynamic and static judgment is accurate.

It should be noted that the motion temporal filtering result is a temporal filtering result of the motion information of the sample and the motion information.

The process of calculating the motion time domain filtering result is as follows:

Step S803, delay processing is carried out on the motion time domain filtering result based on a preset delay control parameter, and a delay parameter is obtained;

The calculation process for obtaining the delay parameter is as follows:

；

for delay control parameters->For the motion temporal filtering result, < >>For sample movement information +.>Is a delay parameter.

It should be noted that by calculating the delay parameter, it is also possible to let the stationary zoneInformation is delayed, let the area after movement +.>The information is persistent, wherein the smaller the delay control parameter, the longer the delay.

It will be appreciated that the delay parameter is introduced so that the transition from motion to stationary is slowed down, the motion information is delayed longer, the motion information is present in more frames, and the tailing phenomenon is reduced more advantageously so that the transition is more natural.

Step S804, horizontal low-pass filtering is performed on the basis of a preset low-pass filtering check delay parameter to obtain a target motion parameter;

in some embodiments, considering that tailing is easier during large movement, in order to further reduce occurrence of a smear phenomenon and consider implementation cost, the embodiment performs horizontal low-pass filtering based on a preset low-pass filtering check delay parameter to obtain a target movement parameter, so as to reduce influence of motion blur, improve positioning accuracy of edges, enable a detection result to be more accurate and reliable, remove artifacts, and improve visual perception effect.

In some embodiments, the time domain filtering is performed on the image to be detected through the preset noise reduction intensity gain parameter and the target motion parameter to obtain the target image, so that noise reduction of different areas in the image to be detected is realized, and the noise reduction quality is improved.

In practical applications, the image itself has a bright and dark area division, and in general, the noise in the dark area will be larger than that in the bright area, so that it is difficult to obtain an ideal denoising effect with the same denoising strength. Even blurring of the highlight detail may result, with low-light noise not removed cleanly. According to weber's theorem, human vision is less sensitive to noise in a bright area than in a dark area, so that protection details can be adopted for a bright area layer to reduce noise reduction; and the noise reduction strength is enhanced for the dark area, the large edge is kept flat, and no obvious noise is generated.

Referring to fig. 9, in some embodiments, step S805 may include, but is not limited to including, steps S901 through S905:

Step S901, calculating a target motion parameter through a first gain parameter to obtain brightness filtering weight;

in some embodiments, the target motion parameter is calculated through the first gain parameter to obtain the brightness filtering weight, so that the noise reduction effect can be enhanced, and the visual quality is improved, wherein the process of specifically obtaining the brightness filtering weight is as follows:

；

for the movement parameters of the target->For the first gain parameter, +.>The weights are luminance filtering.

Step S902, calculating a target motion parameter through a second gain parameter to obtain a chromaticity filtering weight;

in some embodiments, the target motion parameter is calculated through the second gain parameter to reduce noise while keeping the detail information of the image to the maximum extent, avoiding excessive smoothing or blurring, obtaining the chroma filtering weight, and improving the quality and stability of the image to be measured, wherein the process of obtaining the luma filtering weight is as follows:

；

For the movement parameters of the target->For the second gain parameter, +.>Is the chroma filtering weight.

Step S903, performing time domain filtering on the image to be detected according to the brightness filtering weight, the mixed filtering value and the sample filtering value to obtain a third filtering result;

in some embodiments, the temporal filtering is performed on the image to be detected according to the brightness filtering weight, the mixed filtering value and the sample filtering value to obtain a third filtering result, and the temporal filtering of the motion information of the previous and subsequent frames is adopted to obtain more refined motion information, so that the temporal filtering of the brightness or chromaticity of the image is facilitated, and the noise reduction image quality is improved.

It should be noted that, the specific process of obtaining the third filtering result is as follows:

；

for the third filtering result, +.>For brightness filtering weights, +.>For the target filtered value of the current pixel, < >>The values are filtered for the samples.

Step S904, performing time domain filtering on the image to be detected according to the chromaticity filtering weight and the target motion parameter to obtain a fourth filtering result;

in some embodiments, in the process of performing temporal filtering on an image to be detected according to the chrominance filtering weight, firstly, determining a chrominance motion parameter in the image to be detected through a target motion parameter, determining a chrominance value of a frame before a current frame corresponding to the chrominance motion parameter, and then performing temporal filtering through the chrominance motion parameter and the chrominance value to obtain a fourth filtering result, so that image quality and color information can be better maintained, and luminance motion information is used as guidance of chrominance motion, and noise reduction consistency is good.

It should be noted that, during the chroma time domain filtering process, cb and Cr are filtered respectively, and Cb and Cr represent the chroma components of blue and red respectively, and the specific process is as follows:

And step S905, denoising the image to be detected according to the three filtering results and the second filtering result to obtain a target image.

In some embodiments, the noise reduction is performed on the image to be detected according to the three filtering results and the fourth filtering result, the control of different intensity curves of brightness and darkness is combined on the time domain filtering, and the chromaticity is guided by the motion information of brightness, so that the noise reduction can be accurately and finely performed on the image to be detected, a target image is obtained, and the processing of the image details and the color information is better balanced.
