    Abstract: A method of de-mosaicing pixel data from an image processor includes generating a pixel block that includes a plurality of image pixels. The method also includes determining a first image gradient between a first set of pixels of the pixel block and a second image gradient between a second set of pixels of the pixel block. The method also includes determining a first adaptive threshold value based on intensity of a third set of pixels of the pixel block. The pixels of the third set of pixels are adjacent to one another. The method also includes filtering the pixel block in a vertical, horizontal, or neutral direction based on the first and second image gradients and the first adaptive threshold value utilizing a plurality of FIR filters to generate a plurality of component images.

    Abstract: In some examples, a method comprises receiving pixel data from an image capture device having a color filter, wherein the pixel data represents a portion of an image. The method further includes performing wavelet decomposition on the pixel data to produce decomposed pixel data and determining a local intensity of the pixel data. The method also includes determining a noise threshold value based on the local intensity and a noise intensity function that is based on the color filter; determining a noise value for the pixel data based on the decomposed pixel data and the noise threshold value; and correcting the pixel data based on the noise value to produce an output image.
