Definitions
- the present invention relates to a video signal processing technique, and relates to a video signal processing technique for performing a sharpening process / smoothing process of a video using a spatial filter.
- the input video contains various noises and distortions. By removing such factors of image degradation, the image can be easily viewed, and useful information can be extracted and emphasized.
- Typical techniques for image processing include 1) contrast enhancement by density conversion, 2) smoothing for noise removal, and 3) sharpening for enhancing edges. This corresponds to enhancement processing of low frequency components / high frequency components.
- a sharp image obtained by emphasizing a change in density value for such an image is called sharpening.
- One of the sharpening methods is a method of subtracting the result of filtering the original image from the original image (sharpening operator).
- the smoothing process for example, there is a method of moving a 3 ⁇ 3 operator along the original image and calculating the value of each element of the operator and the pixel value of the corresponding original image.

- FIG. 30 when the absolute value of the edge amount input is smaller than the threshold Th, the edge amount input is regarded as noise and sharpening is not performed. This is because the image quality is better when sharpening is not performed, and a range regarded as noise can be designated by a threshold value.

In this case, even if ⁇ indicating the strength of smoothing is reduced, as shown in FIG. 32, since the slope of the smoothing characteristic is reduced, the input / output characteristics of the smoothing near the threshold value and the sharpening are input. The continuity of output characteristics cannot be maintained.
- the sharpening characteristic has a larger slope, so that the intersection with the X axis is closer to the origin, and smoothing is entered near the threshold. Continuity cannot be maintained in the input / output characteristics of the output characteristics and sharpening.

Abstract
Description
以下に、図2に基づく映像処理と図30に基づく映像処理結果の比較例について説明する。以下、フィルタサイズが3×3、フィルタ係数は全て1の場合を例に説明する。但し、フィルタサイズが、5×5、7×7のような場合や、フィルタ係数が異なるものを設定してもよい。また、データはYUVのY(輝度)成分に対して処理を行う場合を例に説明する。但し、データはYCbCr、YPbPr、YIQのYや、L*u*v*、L*a*b*のL、RGBなどに対しても同様に処理することができる。
本実施の形態によれば、入力映像信号を空間フィルタにより処理した出力信号との差分であるエッジ量入力Xと、エッジ量入力Xを変換することによって得られるエッジ量出力YとのX-Y入出力特性において、鮮鋭化されるデータと平滑化されるデータの切替りが常に連続であるため、滑らかな高画質な映像を得ることができる。また、3つのパラメータ毎にそれぞれ異なった出力映像信号を得ることができ、拡大・縮小時(例:TV放送の縦表示、横表示)においても、高画質な映像を得ることができる。また、映像を表示する装置の特性(解像度、画面サイズ、映像のビット数)に合わせた調整ができるため、高画質な映像を得ることができる。さらに、パラメータ調整の自由度を高めることができる。
