The driving method provided by the present application includes: detecting a refresh frequency of a display device based on a plurality of predicted frames to obtain a change rule of the refresh frequency; obtaining a current refresh frequency of the display device and a corresponding frame number information; predicting an expected timing when the display device switches the refresh frequency next time and an expected frequency value after switching according to the change rule, the current refresh frequency, and the corresponding frame number information; and performing a gray-scale compensation on the display device according to the expected frequency value and the expected timing.
