    摘要: A method for enhancing an input image to produce an enhanced output image is provided. The method includes constructing a photographic-mask intermediate image without low-contrast details and a temporary-image intermediate image with enhanced mid-contrast details, retained high-contrast details, and reduced low-contrast details, and employing values for the photographic-mask intermediate image and temporary-image intermediate image to produce the enhanced output image that is globally and locally contrast-enhanced, sharpened, and denoised.

    摘要: Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods and systems for image processing that are unified in nature, carrying out many image-enhancement tasks together in a unified approach, rather than sequentially executing separately implemented, discrete image-enhancement tasks. In addition, the methods and systems of the present invention can apply image-enhancement to local, spatial regions of an image, rather than relying on global application of enhancement techniques that result in production of artifacts and distortions. In certain embodiments of the present invention, various different types of intermediate images are produced at each of a number of different scales from a received, input image. From these intermediate images, a photographic mask and temporary image are obtained, and the photographic mask and temporary image are then employed, along with a look-up table or function that receives values from the photographic mask and temporary image, to compute an enhanced, output image. In a described embodiment of the present invention, the intermediate images include low-pass, band-pass, photographic-mask, and temporary-image intermediate images computed at each of a number of different scales.

    摘要: Provided are systems, methods and techniques that estimate the noise level in a signal, such as an image, by ordering windows in the signal based on calculated measures of the variability within each window (i.e., ordering from lowest to highest or, alternatively, from highest to lowest). That order information is then used together with the calculated measures of variability to form an estimate of the noise level. Typically, the techniques of the present invention generate this estimate based on the windows having the lowest or the second-lowest or the several lowest, depending upon the nature of the image, measures of variability.

    摘要: An image is processed in a device-independent color space by applying a modification function to one or more dimensions of that color space. The image is then converted into a target device-dependent color space. In order to minimize unwanted changes of color arising from the modification function taking image color values out of gamut when converted to the target device-dependent color space, the modification function is scaled to limit modified image values to within modification limits that are determined, for each image pixel or group of pixels, in dependence on the target device-dependent color space gamut boundary in the device-independent color space.

    摘要: A method of reducing blurring in an image of size greater than M columns by N rows of pixels, comprises deriving a blur kernel k representing the blur in the image, and deriving an inverse blur kernel k−1. The inverse blur kernel is given by (I) where h(m) is the sum of the first m terms of the series (II) δ is the Dirac delta, m is greater than 1, and h(m) is a two dimensional matrix of size M×N. The two dimensional matrix h(m) is convolved with the image over the whole image in the image pixel domain to produce an image with reduced blur. The method may be applied to a video sequence allowing the sequence of images to be deblurred in real time.
