Abstract:
Provided are an image processing circuit, a system-on-chip including the same, and a method of improving quality of a first image. The image processing circuit includes a tuning circuit configured to receive a segmentation map including pixel-by-pixel class inference information of the first image and a confidence map including confidence of the class inference information, determine classes of respective pixels of the first image, correction effects for each pixel of the image, and correction values indicating intensity of the correction effects based on the segmentation map and the confidence map, and generate a correction map based on the classes and the correction values of the respective pixels; and at least one correcting circuit configured to generate an enhanced image by applying correction effects according to the correction values to the respective pixels of the first image based on the correction map.
