Description

The detection method of the bearing calibration of gamma characteristic and definite equivalent model and parameter thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to video communication technology, particularly determine the detection method and the bearing calibration of gamma characteristic equivalent model and parameter thereof in video signal transmission and the processing links.
Background technology
It is the problem that ubiquity also needs solution in the multimedia information system that Gamma proofreaies and correct, for the graphics/animation that generates by video camera/camera video captured/rest image, computer of multimedia information system and in communication from the video/rest image of distant terminal etc., in order on display device, to reach high-quality display effect, obtain good user experience (User Experience, perhaps be called Quality ofExperience), must carry out Gamma and proofread and correct.
The situation that multimedia information system related to the present invention relates to the Gamma correction comprises following aspect:
Situation A: the local terminal system, information spinner will be handled on the local terminal, does not relate to communication process.Mainly be local video camera/camera video captured/rest image, the situation that the graphics/animation that computer generates etc. shows on local display screen.Such as PC, PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) or have mobile phone of camera function etc.
Situation B: multiple terminals/terminal-server communication systems, communicate by letter between a plurality of terminals, perhaps communicate by letter between terminal and the server.Mainly be video telephone, have high-end (2.5G/3G, B3G) mobile phone, PDA of MMS (multi-media SMS) or video communication function etc.
Video communication is obtaining at present increasingly extensive application along with developing rapidly of broadband network, at home and in the world, video conference and visual telephone service are becoming the basic service on the NGN (Next Generation Network next generation network).The telecom operators of various countries also pay much attention to this market opportunity, can be expected in the coming years, and video communication service will become the important business growth point of operator.A key issue that develops this type of business is to improve the user experience (UserExperience perhaps is called Quality of Experience) of end-to-end (End-to-end).(packet loss postpones, shake except the QoS of network in the user experience, the R factor etc.) outside the parameter, for video, because the Gamma nonlinear problem that each link causes, causing the distortion (Distortion) for luminance signal, also is to influence the key factor that the end user experiences.But at present, mainly concentrate on the assurance network QoS pre-process and post-process (Pre-processing relevant for method that improves end-to-end user experience and technology with video compression coding, Post-processing) aspect, and the brightness distortion problem that causes for the Gamma characteristic, the solution that lacks concern and system, but the seriousness of this problem has caused concerns of some international big telecom operators.France Telecom (France Telecom) has just proposed to consider the influence that the Gamma characteristic is experienced for communication user in the recent period at the ITU-T of International Telecommunications Union in video communication, and the suggestion that this type of problem is solved.
In a multi-media information terminal (hereinafter referred terminal), the light signal of extraneous scene (personage, background, file etc.) enters into video camera/camera, converts data image signal to through A/D, then:
Under situation A, directly deliver on the display device and show, finally become light signal again by the human eye perception.Certainly may handle through some in the middle of, such as for the figure image intensifying that promotes image effect etc.;
Under situation B, data image signal is through condensing encoder (Encoder) compression, send out the arrival distant terminal by network (wired, wireless, circuit switching, packet switching network can) then, go compression (decompression) decoding to be reduced to data image signal at distant terminal through decoder (Decoder), on display device, show again, finally become light signal again by the human eye perception.
As shown in Figure 1, Fig. 1 is the model schematic diagram of link Gamma characteristic, no matter situation A or situation B, (Luminance is a kind of luminance signal of broad sense to image brightness signal in this process here, and promptly light signal at the beginning is to the signal of telecommunication, arrive digitized image brightness/grey scale signal again, the signal in each stage all contains the information of luminance signal, and therefore in broad terms, luminance signal has been passed through a plurality of links) passed through a plurality of links.According to definition, the Gamma characteristic just is meant that the luminance signal input-output relation of a link is not linear, but a kind of non-linear, shown in the curve among Figure 10.
The influence of Gamma nonlinear element distortion as shown in Figure 2, top delegation's gray scale square brightness is linear increment, from 0.1 to 1.0, below delegation distort through the Gamma nonlinear element, brightness increases progressively according to the power function rule.
In practice, Gamma is non-linear is caused that by different reasons for CRT (Cathod Ray Tube, cathode ray tube) display devices such as television set, PC displays, the Gamma characteristic satisfies formula 1 under ideal state:
L out=L in 2.2 (1)
Formula 1 is a power function (Power Function).Need to prove that the input and output luminance signal here all is to have carried out normalization (Normalized), i.e. 0≤L in coordinate space separately Out≤ 1,0≤L In≤ 1.
And for the display of other types such as mobile phone, PDA such as liquid crystal etc., the form of its Gamma function or different in form or parameter difference.
As shown in Figure 3, Fig. 3 is the model schematic diagram of a plurality of link cascades (cascading or the be called series connection) link of getting up Gamma characteristic, and total Gamma characteristic equals compound (composition) of each link Gamma function, satisfies formula 2:
G CT(.)=G (1)(.)оG (2)(.)оG (3)(.)……G (n-1)(.)оG (n)(.)
l out=GCT(l in)=G(n)(G (n-1)(G (n-2)(……G (2)(G (1)(l in))))) (2)
The compound operation of " о " representative function.CT represents cascaded total, i.e. the meaning of the total Gamma of cascade.
For situation A: a plurality of Gamma links that relate to mainly contain as shown in Figure 4:
1, video camera/camera Gamma is expressed as G Cam(.);
General video camera all has the Gamma characteristic, except image device non-linear such as CCD self, video camera has been introduced artificial non-linear, its objective is the Gamma characteristic that allows the Gamma characteristic of video camera just compensate display, makes that total Gamma characteristic is linear.If the desirable Gamma of display is: L Out=Lin2.2; The desirable Gamma of video camera is so: L Out=L In 0.45
Therefore in theory, the Gamma characteristic of video camera is by the Gamma characteristic decision of display.But because terminal system is complicated day by day, there are a plurality of links between video camera and the display, its number is indefinite, Gamma characteristic separately is also unknown, even the Gamma of video camera and display just in time mates and can compensate mutually like this, but because intermediate link exists, this compensation is invalid generally speaking.And type of display is numerous, for example: displays such as CRT and liquid crystal, plasma, its Gamma characteristic is mutually far short of what is expected, and the Gamma characteristic of cheap camera its desirable Gamma of substantial deviation often.
2, storage file Gamma is expressed as G Fil(.);
File may pass through processing from video camera, and compressed encoding also experienced a plurality of Gamma links, so file itself has carried the Gamma characteristic.
3, display frame is deposited Gamma, is expressed as G FBuf(.);
Early stage display is because show that the color depth of storage is not enough, such as can only supporting 4,8,16 color depths, rather than 24 desirable true color, equaled to compress the dynamic range of input luminance signal, therefore also introduced the Gamma characteristic.In addition, because under pattern under the non-true color, the palette of use (Palette) color map technology or shake (Dither) technology etc. all can be introduced non-linear Gamma.
4, show the Gamma that tables look-up, be expressed as G LUT(.);
Some display device in order to compensate the non-linear of display, has artificially been introduced Gamma, and this Gamma shows as a LUT (Look-Up Table), and the brightness data of reading from frame is deposited will be through the LUT conversion, just remove driving display.
5, display Gamma is expressed as G Disp(.).
It is non-linear that general display has very strong Gamma.
For situation B: a plurality of Gamma links that relate to mainly contain as shown in Figure 5:
1, video camera/camera Gamma is expressed as G Cam(.);
2, storage file Gamma is expressed as G Fil(.);
3, display frame is deposited Gamma, is expressed as G FBuf(.);
4, show the Gamma that tables look-up, be expressed as G LUT(.);
5, display Gamma is expressed as G Disp(.);
6, encoder Gamma is expressed as G Enc(.);
Because the Gamma that DCT (the Discrete Cosine Transform) conversion in the compression, quantification cause.
7, decoder Gamma is expressed as G Dec(.).
Because the DCT inverse transformation in decompressing, the Gamma that inverse quantization causes.
For situation B, even more serious is, local video/image, far-end video and the Gamma link of encircling video (being used for specific purposes such as fault diagnosis etc.) process certainly are different, in addition, no matter situation A or B, the Gamma link that relates in truth may be more, so situation is complicated more.
Ideal situation is that input optical signal is exported light signal from entering camera to finally showing at display screen, has linear relationship between the input and output luminance signal, that is: L Out=L In, like this scenery seen of people just and original just the same, user experience is best.
Obtain linear relationship, must carry out Gamma correction (Gamma Correction) for having non-linear Gamma characteristic link.As shown in Figure 6, for a link, its Gamma characteristic is given, can carry out cascade with another one correction link and it so, make that total Gamma characteristic is called real linear relationship after the cascade, fall the nonlinear purpose of given link thereby reached compensation, the model of correction link is the inversion model of Gamma characteristic equivalent model, if equivalent model can represent that then the functional relation of inversion model is its inverse function with functional relation.Obviously, G g(.) and G c(.) be inverse function each other.Generally speaking, for a function, obtain its inverse function and not necessarily separate (, also can't obtain) with Calculation Method even perhaps separate existence.
In the practical application more situation as shown in Figure 7, correction link need be inserted between former and later two given links, this moment G c(.) situation is complicated more, G c(.) and G a(.) or G p(.) no longer is simple inverse function relation.
The implementation method of correction link mainly contains following two kinds in the prior art:
Prior art one: the Gamma characteristic that relies on video camera/camera or demonstration LUT is fully proofreaied and correct display Gamma characteristic
Suppose under the perfect condition: G Cam(.): L Out=L In 0.45G LUT(.): L Out=L In 0.45G Disp(.): L Out=L In 2.2
Then: G Camо G Disp(.) becomes: L Out=L In, the linear relationship of formation standard; G LUTо G Disp(.) becomes: L Out=L In, the linear relationship of formation standard.
But there is following deficiency in above-mentioned technology:
Perfect condition is to be difficult to obtain, and can not guarantee that the Gamma of video camera/camera, LUT just mates fully with display Gamma.And type of display is a lot, and the Gamma of cheap camera is imperfect certainly; If G Cam(.), G LUT(.) exists simultaneously, overcompensate then, G Camо G LUTо G Disp(.) becomes: L Out=L In 0.45, departed from linearity on the contrary; The Mathematical Modeling of simulation gamma characteristic is inaccurate, studies show that much the Gamma of display is not simple power function, and more precise analytic model may be the linear combination of power function and constant function, or linear function and power function is compound.
Prior art two:
Between some link,, insert a Gamma correction link and carry out Gamma and proofread and correct such as after the video camera link or before display frame deposits link.In addition, may aspect the Gamma of display characteristic model, adopt precise analytic model more, such as formula 3:
L out = 1 0.45 L in , if 0 &le; L in &le; 0.081 1 1.099 ( L in + 0.099 ) 2.2 , if 0.081 < L in &le; 1 - - - ( 3 )
Accordingly, the Gamma of video camera is considered to mate fully with display Gamma, such as formula 4:
L out = 0.45 L in , if 0 &le; L in &le; 0.081 1.099 L in 0.45 - 0.099 , if 0.081 < L in &le; 1 - - - ( 4 )
Prior art two shortcomings are:
Calibration model is single, and the situation of a plurality of links is very complicated, and the Gamma characteristic of a plurality of links fails accurately to obtain, and must cause and can not accurately proofread and correct, and promptly proofreaies and correct the result and remains nonlinear, even accurately some also are not have help to model.Therefore, still can not avoid existing the problem of overcorrect or undercorrection; And this method can only be applied in some particular cases, can't be common to the correction of any a plurality of Gamma links.

Embodiment
Studies show that, the functional relation of more accurate gamma characteristic equivalent model is the linear combination of power function and constant function, or linear function and power function is compound, in different environment, can obtain concrete functional relation comparatively accurately by the parameter in the actual measurement functional relation.
Embodiment one: the method for measurement of gamma characteristic equivalent model parameter
It is that example is carried out as the universal model of Gamma characteristic that invention selects to adopt following monocycle joint equivalent model
Describe in detail:
First kind Gamma model: L Out=pL In α+ (1-p) 0<p≤1, α 〉=1 (5)
Wherein: the domain of definition of function shown in the formula 5 (being the independent variable span) is interval [(1-p), 1] for interval [0,1], codomain (span of functional value), and curve characteristic is shown in Figure 11 a, and obviously for first kind model, if p=1, then there is L α=1 Out=L InTherefore when actual measurement, if the parameter p of this first kind model=1, α=1 o'clock, perhaps p fully near 1 and α fully near 1 o'clock, can think that the gamma characteristic of link can be left in the basket, need not proofread and correct.The exemplary of this first kind Gamma characteristic is a CRT monitor.
The second class Gamma model: L out = ( qL in + ( 1 - q ) ) 1 &beta; - - - q &GreaterEqual; 1 , &beta; &GreaterEqual; 1 - - - ( 6 )
Wherein: the domain of definition of function shown in the formula 6 (being the independent variable span) is interval [1-1/q, 1], and codomain (span of functional value) be interval [(0,1], and curve characteristic is shown in Figure 11 b, and obviously for second class model, if q=1, then there is L β=1 Out=L InEqually, when actual measurement, if q=1, β=1 o'clock, perhaps q fully near 1 and β fully near 1 o'clock, can think that the gamma characteristic of link can be left in the basket, need not proofread and correct, and the exemplary of this second class feature is a video camera.
In addition, if q=1/p, α=β, therefore the first kind and second class model inverse function each other can compensate mutually and obtain linear characteristic so.If that is: given link has first kind Gamma characteristic to picture, its correction Gamma characteristic has second class model so; If given link has the second class Gamma characteristic to picture, its correction Gamma characteristic has first kind model so.
After a plurality of Gamma links were carried out cascade, the Gamma characteristic that it is comprehensive from the mathematics generality, no longer had the first kind or second class model of monocycle joint.But we find that under study for action the Mathematical Modeling of the comprehensive Gamma characteristic of too many levels has following characteristics:
1, its functional image be confined to coordinate plane zone [0,1] * [0,1] (here " * " expression two set cartesian product Cartesian Product, perhaps be called direct product) in, as shown in figure 12;
2, monotonic increase;
3, epirelief and protruding down;
Two kinds of situations go up from how much meanings, epirelief be curve to upper left bending, following protruding be that curve is to the bottom right bending.
4 and the Lin axle intersect, perhaps intersect (two kinds of situations) with the Lout axle;
5, curve negotiating (1,1) point;
Therefore, 3,4 situation independently makes up and just forms four kinds of combining cases:
Situation 1 and L InAxle intersects, epirelief;
Situation 2 and L InAxle intersects, and is following protruding;
Situation 3 and L OutAxle intersects, epirelief;
Situation 4 and L OutAxle intersects, and is following protruding.
According to above qualitative analysis, the comprehensive Gamma characteristic model of a plurality of Gamma link cascade can have following two classes, and functional relation is respectively formula 7 and formula 8:
The first kind: L Out=pL In α+ (1-p) 0<p≤1, the corresponding situation 3 in α>0 and 4 (7)
Second class: L out = ( qL in + ( 1 - q ) ) 1 &beta; Q 〉=1, the corresponding situation 1 in β>0 and 2 (8)
It may be noted that, from in form, too many levels (wherein can have first kind link, the second class link also can be arranged, two class links can be according to any amount and concatenated in order, method of the present invention all is suitable for) first kind of comprehensive Gamma characteristic, second class respectively with the monocycle joint Gamma characteristic first kind, second class is the same.But in the first kind composite characteristic model, according to the empirical value of The qualitative analysis and actual measurement, index α span becomes α>0, and in the second class composite characteristic model, index β span becomes β>0.
After having selected the Gamma characteristic model, need measure Gamma characterisitic parameter wherein in concrete applied environment, whether the functional relation that input/output signal satisfies in the last Gamma characteristic model of method of measurement direct relation is accurate.Wherein:, need to determine parameter p and α for first kind model; For second class model, need to determine parameter q and β.
The measurement concrete steps of monocycle joint Gamma characteristic model parameter are as follows:
1, at input luminance signal L InOn [0,1] interval, select at interval uniform N sampled point: L In(0), L In(1), L In(2) ... L In(i) ... L In(N-2), L In(N-1);
2,, and measure N corresponding value: L of actual output luminance signal with in luminance signal N the sampled value difference input element P Out(0), L P Out(1), L P Out(2) ... L P Out(i) ... L P Out(N-2), L P Out(N-1);
3, the target function of structure match is, the output luminance signal of target function and actual detected is relevant with the difference that the theory of determining by the Gamma characteristic model is exported between the luminance signal, and difference is more little, and the equivalent effect that model is described is more near actual conditions.
The building method of target function is a lot, and comparatively commonly used is following formula 9 or formula 10:
F T 1 ( p , &alpha; ) = &Sigma; i = 0 N - 1 ( L out P ( i ) - pL in ( i ) &alpha; - ( 1 - p ) ) 2 - - - ( 9 ) Perhaps,
F T 2 ( q , &beta; ) = &Sigma; i = 0 N - 1 ( L out P ( i ) - ( qL in ( i ) + ( 1 - q ) ) 1 &beta; ) 2 - - - ( 10 )
4, the thresholding T of target setting functional value and maximum iteration time M utilize the mathematical optimization method to seek optimal parameter group;
At first for the cost function of the first kind F T 1 ( p , &alpha; ) = &Sigma; i = 0 N - 1 ( L out P ( i ) - pL in ( i ) &alpha; - ( 1 - p ) ) 2 , Adopt certain mathematical optimization technology, for example: climbing method, 0.618 method (Hua Luogeng optimum seeking method), steepest descent method or conjugate gradient method etc. are asked for its minimum value;
