Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing video pictures especially for dynamic false contour effect compensation.
  • the plasma display technology now makes it possible to achieve flat colour panels of large size and with limited depth without any viewing angle constraints.
  • the size of the screens may be much larger than the classical CRT picture tubes would have ever allowed.
  • Plasma Display Panel utilizes a matrix array of discharge cells, which could only be “on” or “off'. Therefore, unlike a Cathode Ray Tube display device or a Liquid Crystal Display device in which gray levels are expressed by analog control of the light emission, a PDP controls gray level by a Pulse Width Modulation of each cell. This time-modulation is integrated by the eye over a period corresponding to the eye time response. The more often a cell is switched on in a given time frame, the higher is its luminance or brightness. Let us assume that we want to dispose of 8 bit luminance levels i.e. 255 levels per color. In that case, each level can be represented by a combination of 8 bits with the following weights: 1 ⁇ 2 ⁇ 4 ⁇ 8 ⁇ 16 ⁇ 32 ⁇ 64 ⁇ 128
  • the frame period can be divided in 8 lighting sub-periods, called sub-fields, each corresponding to a bit and a brightness level.
  • the number of light pulses for the bit "2" is the double as for the bit "1"; the number of light pulses for the bit "4" is the double as for the bit "2" and so on...
  • the light emission pattern introduces new categories of image-quality degradation corresponding to disturbances of gray levels and colors. These is defined as “dynamic false contour effect” since it corresponds to disturbances of gray levels and colors in the form of an apparition of colored edges in the picture when an observation point on the PDP screen moves. Such failures on a picture lead to the impression of strong contours appearing on homogeneous area.
  • the degradation is enhanced when the picture has a smooth gradation, for example like skin, and when the light-emission period exceeds several milliseconds.
  • the false contour effect occurs when there is a transition from one level to another with a totally different sub-field code.
  • the human eye integrates the light emitted by Pulse Width Modulation.
  • the temporal center of gravity of the light generation for a sub-field code is not growing with the video level. This is illustrated by the figure 2 .
  • the temporal center of gravity CG2 of the sub-field code corresponding to a video level 2 is superior to the temporal center of gravity CG3 of the sub-field code corresponding to a video level 3 even if 3 is more luminous than 2. This discontinuity in the light emission pattern (growing levels have not growing gravity center) introduces false contour.
  • the center of gravity SfCG i of the seven first sub-fields of the frame of figure 1 are shown in figure 3 .
  • the temporal centers of gravity of the 256 video levels for a 11 sub-fields code with the following weights, 1 2 3 5 8 12 18 27 41 58 80, can be represented as shown in figure 4 .
  • this curve is not monotonous and presents a lot of jumps. These jumps correspond to false contour.
  • the idea of the patent application EP 1 256 924 is to suppress these jumps by selecting only some levels, for which the gravity center grows smoothly. This can be done by tracing a monotone curve without jumps on the previous graphic, and selecting the nearest point.
  • Such a monotone curve is shown in figure 5 . It is not possible to select levels with growing gravity center for the low levels because the number of possible levels is low and so, if only growing gravity center levels were selecting, there will not be enough levels to have a good video quality in the black levels since the human eye is very sensitive in the black levels. In addition the false contour in dark areas is negligible. In the high level, there is a decrease of the gravity centers. So, there will be a decrease also in the chosen levels, but this is not important since the human eye is not sensitive in the high level. In these areas, the eye is not capable to distinguish different levels and the false contour level is negligible regarding the video level (the eye is only sensitive to relative amplitude if we consider the Weber-Fechner law). For these reasons, the monotony of the curve is necessary just for the video levels between 10% and 80% of the maximal video level.
  • 40 levels are selected among the 256 possible levels. These 40 levels permit to keep a good video quality (gray-scale portrayal). This is the selection that can be made when working at the video level, since only few levels, topically 256, are available. But when this selection is made at the encoding, there are 2 n different sub-field arrangements, and so more levels can be selected as seen on the figure 6 , where each point corresponds to a sub-field arrangement (there are different sub-field arrangements giving a same video level).
  • GCC Gravity Center Coding
  • the problem is that the whole picture has a different behavior depending on its content. Indeed, in area having smooth gradation like on the skin, it is important to have as many code words as possible to reduce the dithering noise. Furthermore, those areas are mainly based on a continuous gradation of neighboring levels that fits very well to the general concept of GCC as shown on figure 7 . In this figure, the video level of a skin area is presented.
  • the figure 8 shows the video level range for Red, Blue and Green mandatory to reproduce the smooth skin gradation on the woman forehead depicted on the figure 7 .
  • the GCC is based on 40 code words. As it can be seen, all levels from one color component are very near together and this suits very well to the GCC concept. In that case we have almost no false contour effect in those area with a very good dithering noise behavior if there are enough code words, for example 40.
  • the gradient based coding disclosed in the European patent application EP 1 522 964 can be a good solution to reduce or remove the false contour effect when the video sequence is coded by a gravity center coding of EP 1 256 924 .
  • a reduced set of codes comprising 11 code words is for example shown in figure 11 .
  • FIG. 12 shows the gradient regions detected by a gradient extraction filter in the picture of Figure 7 .
  • the high gradient regions are displayed in white in this figure.
  • the other regions are displayed in black.
  • the set of codes needed for coding the high gradient areas is itself a subset from the set of codes needed for coding the other areas of the picture, it is proposed according to the invention to shift the boundary between the two areas and to put it, for each horizontal line of pixels, at a pixel that can be coded by a code belonging to the two sets. So, the picture areas coded by codes of the high gradient set are extended. It comes from the observation that there is almost no false contour effect between any two neighbouring pixels coded by two codes belonging to the same set.
  • the invention concerns a method for processing video pictures for dynamic false contour effect compensation, each pixel of the video pictures having at least one colour component (RGB), the colour component values being digitally coded with a digital code word, hereinafter called sub-field code word, wherein to each bit of a sub-field code word a certain duration is assigned, hereinafter called sub-field, during which a colour component of the pixel can be activated for light generation, comprising the steps of:
  • the extension of the second type area is limited to P pixels.
  • P is a random number comprised between a minimum number and a maximum number.
  • the number P changes at each line or at each group of m consecutive lines.
  • the temporal centre of gravity for the light generation of the sub-field code words grows continuously with the corresponding video level except for the low video level range up to a first predefined limit and/or in the high video level range from a second predefined limit.
  • the video gradient ranges are advantageously non-overlapping and the number of codes in the sets of sub-field code words decreases as the average gradient of the corresponding video gradient range gets higher.
  • the invention concerns also an apparatus for processing video pictures for dynamic false contour effect compensation, each pixel of the video pictures having at least one colour component (RGB), the colour component values being digitally coded with a digital code word, hereinafter called sub-field code word, wherein to each bit of a sub-field code word a certain duration is assigned, hereinafter called sub-field, during which a colour component of the pixel can be activated for light generation, comprising :
  • Figure 13 It shows a part of picture comprising 6 lines of 20 pixels. Some of these pixels (shown in yellow) are coded by a first set of codes and the other pixels (shown in green) are coded with a second set of codes.
  • the second set is a subset of the first set i.e. all the codes of the second set are included in the first set.
  • the second set of codes is for example the set used for high gradient areas of the picture as illustrated by figure 5 and the first set is the set used for the low gradient areas as illustrated by figure 11 .
  • the pixels coded by codes of the second set are located in the left part of the picture and the pixels coded by codes of the first set are located in the right part of the picture. Since the second set is a subset of the first set, there are some pixels in the yellow area that are coded by codes belonging to both sets. Those pixels are identified in figure 13 by the yellowish green colour.
  • the principle of the invention is to shift, for each horizontal line of pixels, the area coded by the second set (the boundary between the area coded by the first set and the area coded by the second set is shifted) until it meets a pixel that can be coded by the two sets (yellowish green pixels).
  • This shift is shown in the figure 13 by black arrows. It guarantees that the dynamic false contour effects are eliminated. The reason behind this result is that there is now no light discontinuity between the neighbouring pixels. The result after applying this extension to the picture of figure 13 is given by figure 14 .
  • the pixels (yellowish green pixels) that can be coded by codes of both sets can be far from the initial boundary and it can introduce unnecessary noise in the extended part of the area coded by the second set. Therefore, a criterion for limiting the extension of the area of pixels coded by the second set is advantageously introduced to reduce this noise. So, in a preferred embodiment, the extension of the area including pixels coded by the second set is limited to P pixels for each horizontal line. In this case, the area coded by the second set is extended until it meets a pixel that can be coded by both sets or the extension is equal to P pixels.
  • Figure 15 is identical to figure 13 except that the pixels of the extension of each line are numbered up to 4.
  • the extension of the third and fifth lines of pixels exceeds 4 pixels.
  • Figure 16 shows the results when the extension is limited to 4 pixels for each line.
  • the dynamic false contour can not be seen even if the extension is not followed by a common pixel (pixel that can be coded by both sets) because the end of the extension is not uniform.
  • the extension stops in a random way. Indeed if it is not possible to eliminate the dynamic false contour effect by extending the area coded by the second set up to a common pixel, then scattering the dynamic false contour effect is a solution. If the initial boundary is random, the dynamic false contour effect is scattered.
  • the number P of pixels of the extension is advantageously selected randomly for each line or each group of m consecutive lines in a range of n possible values. For example, the range comprises five values [3, 4, 5, 6, 7] and so P can be randomly one of these five values.
  • a device implementing the invention is presented on figure 17 .
  • the output signal of this block is advantageously more than 12 bits to be able to render correctly low video levels.
  • a partitioning module 2 which is for example a classical gradient extraction filter, to partition the picture into at least first type area (for example high gradient area) and second type area (low gradient area).
  • first type area for example high gradient area
  • second type area low gradient area
  • partitioning or gradient extraction before the gamma correction.
  • MSB Most Significant Bits
  • the partitioning information is sent to an allocating module 3, which allocates appropriate set of sub-field codes to be used for encoding current input value.
  • a first set is for example allocated for the low gradient areas of the picture and a second set (which is a subset of the first set) is allocated for the high gradient areas.
  • the extension of the areas coded by the second set as defined before is implemented in this block.
  • the video has to be rescaled to the number of levels of this set (for example, 11 levels if the code set illustrated by Figure 11 is used or 40 levels if the code set illustrated by Figure 5 ) plus a fractional part which is rendered by dithering. So, based on this allocated set, a rescaling LUT 4 and a coding LUT 6 for encoding the input levels into sub-field codes with the allocated set of codes are updated. Between them, a dithering block 7 adds more than 4 bits dithering to correctly render the video signal.
  • the invention is applicable to any display device based on a duty-cycle modulation (or pulse width modulation - PWM) of light emission.
  • PDP plasma display panels
  • DMD digital micro-mirror devices
