    摘要: A method for adjusting the brightness of a captured image from a digital camera includes calculating a reference exposure value using the capture parameters and calculating an actual exposure value as a function of ambient illumination parameters. The reference exposure and actual exposure values are compared to determine an actual image saturation value. The actual image saturation value is compared with the saturation value of the image sensor to determine a brightness adjustment factor, and the captured image is adjusted to compensate for overexposure or underexposure in response to the brightness adjustment factor. The image is scaled up or down using the brightness adjustment factor if the actual image saturation value is less than or more than the saturation value of the image sensor used to capture the image.

    摘要: Automatically resizing demosaicked full-color images using edge-orientation maps formed in the demosaicking process. In a first example embodiment, a method for automatic upsampling of a demosaicked image includes several acts. First, a demosaicked image and an edge-orientation map that was created during the creation of the demosaicked image are received. Next, pixels of the demosaicked image are filled into an upsampled image. Then, edge-orientation values of pixels of the edge-orientation map are filled into an upsampled edge-orientation map. Next, an interpolation direction is determined for each pixel in which upsampling of the demosaicked image should be performed using the upsampled edge-orientation map. Finally, missing pixels in the upsampled image are estimated by performing interpolation along the interpolation direction using available pixels surrounding each missing pixel location.

    摘要: An image processing method that demosaicks a mosaic input image to generate a full color output image. The image processing method calculates both vertical and horizontal luminance-chrominance difference components for each pixel of the mosaic input image. Next, the image processing method calculates an enhanced version of both vertical and horizontal luminance-chrominance difference components for each pixel of the mosaic input image. Then, the image processing method interpolates a G component for each of the original R and B components. Next, the image processing method detects a signal overshoot or undershoot in each interpolated G component and to clamps each interpolated G component with a detected signal overshoot or undershoot to the closest neighboring original G component. Next, the image processing method interpolates missing R and/or B components in each pixel location of the captured image.

    摘要: The image processing procedure of the invention receives mosaic image data and calculates a vertical-direction color difference component with regard to each of pixel columns in the mosaic image data in a vertical direction and a horizontal-direction color difference component with regard to each of pixel rows in the mosaic image data in a horizontal direction. The mosaic image data is expressed by a combination of pixel columns with alternate arrangement of pixels of a G component and pixels of an R component in the vertical direction, pixel columns with alternate arrangement of pixels of the G component and pixels of a B component in the vertical direction, pixel rows with alternate arrangement of pixels of the G component and pixels of the R component in the horizontal direction, and pixel rows with alternate arrangement of pixels of the G component and pixels of the B component in the horizontal direction. The image processing procedure subsequently selects pixels of the R component and pixels of the B component from the mosaic image data, and compares a variation of the vertical-direction color difference component with a variation of the horizontal-direction color difference component with regard to each of at least the selected pixels to detect edge orientations of the at least selected pixels. The image processing procedure refers to the detected edge orientations, and interpolates a missing color component in each pixel of the mosaic image data with the settings of one color component in each pixel in the mosaic image data.

    摘要: A method for suppressing structured noise in a digital image includes creating a smoothed version of the original image. Monotonic and slowly-varying image regions are detected by analyzing a residual image which is the function of the original image and its smoothed version. A local window is defined in each pixel location identified in the thresholding process as the location with structured noise and samples inside the window are randomly permuted to randomize the noise structures. A noise-filtered version of the original residual image is generated. The noise-filtered residual and the smoothed version of the original image are combined to produce a final image.
