Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting of the invention. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.
Example one
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an image contrast enhancement method in a first embodiment of the present invention, and this embodiment is applicable to a case where contrast enhancement is performed on a color image under a condition that colors of the color image are maintained. The method may be performed by an image contrast enhancement apparatus, which may be implemented in software and/or hardware, and may be configured in an electronic device, for example, the electronic device may be a device with communication and computing capabilities, such as a background server. As shown in fig. 1, the method specifically includes:
Due to the influences of factors such as poor lighting conditions of shooting surrounding environment, limitation of image acquisition equipment and the like, the problems of low overall gray value and unsatisfactory contrast of an actually acquired image generally exist, and the visual effect of the image is influenced. And the contrast ratio can describe the contrast between different brightness layers in the bright and dark areas of the image, wherein the larger the difference range is, the higher the contrast ratio is, and the smaller the difference range is, the lower the contrast ratio is. The contrast of the image can be improved by utilizing the contrast enhancement technology, the quality of the image is improved, the target object in the originally dark image can be obviously distinguished, the details are clear and distinguishable, the region of interest can be easily identified, the observation and judgment of human eyes are facilitated, and the required information is acquired.
The image needing contrast enhancement is the image to be enhanced, when the image to be enhanced is a color image and the acquisition scene is a low-illumination scene, a part of regions possibly exist in the image due to insufficient illumination or in shadow regions, some pixel points in the regions often lose information along with difficulty in information acquisition, for example, the value of one or two channels of the pixel points losing the information is 0. After contrast enhancement is performed on the color images, the color distortion problem of the images can occur, and particularly, the visual effect of the images is influenced at the pixel points with lost information. And regarding the point losing information in the image to be enhanced as the color bias point.
Specifically, the pixel information of the image to be enhanced can represent the loss condition of the channel value of the pixel, whether the pixel is a color cast point can be determined according to the loss condition of the channel value of the pixel, if any pixel has the channel value loss condition, the pixel is the color cast point, and the information of the pixel, such as position information or channel value information, is determined.
In one possible embodiment, the pixel information includes three channel component values of the pixel;
accordingly, step 101 includes:
determining the minimum value of three-channel component values of a target pixel point in an image to be enhanced;
and if the minimum value is smaller than the preset threshold value, determining that the target pixel point is a color cast point, and determining the position information of the color cast point.
And determining the condition of channel value loss of the pixel point according to the size of the component value of the three channels of the pixel point in the pixel point information. Specifically, the minimum value of the component values of the three channels of each pixel point in the image to be enhanced is determined, and the minimum value can reflect the color condition of the pixel point, so that whether the corresponding pixel point is a color cast point can be determined according to the comparison result of the minimum value and a preset threshold value. The size of the preset threshold may be determined according to the actual scene of the image, and is not limited herein. For example, as can be seen from the foregoing description, if the value of one or both of the channels of the pixel point with lost information is 0, the preset threshold is set to 1, and when the minimum value of the component values of the three channels in the image to be enhanced is smaller than 1, the value of at least one channel of the pixel point is 0, the pixel point is determined to be a color bias point, and the coordinate information of the pixel point is marked.
In a possible embodiment, if the minimum value is smaller than the preset threshold, determining that the target pixel point is a color cast point includes:
and if the minimum value is smaller than the preset threshold value and at least one of the three-channel component values of the target pixel point is not equal to 0, determining that the target pixel point is a color cast point.
The image to be enhanced has pixel points with three channel values of 0, but the pixel points belong to normal points in the image to be enhanced. For example, a black region in the acquisition scene corresponds to a pixel point region with three channel values all equal to 0 in the image to be enhanced. Therefore, the pixel points with three channel values of 0 in the image to be enhanced cannot be regarded as color bias points. And when the judgment is carried out simply according to the comparison result of the minimum value and the preset threshold value, the pixel point with three channels of 0 is certainly mistaken for the color cast point, so that whether the three channel values of the pixel point are all equal to 0 or not is determined, and if the three channel values are all equal to 0, the pixel point is not the color cast point.
By comparing the component values of the three channels with the preset threshold value and combining the overall judgment of the component values of the three channels, the accuracy of determining the color cast points is improved, and the influence on the color cast correction of the image caused by the fact that the normal pixel points in the image to be enhanced are judged to be the color cast points by mistake is avoided.
Illustratively, each pixel point of the image to be enhanced is subjected to line-by-line traversal operation, the minimum value of R, G, B three-channel color component gray scale of each pixel point is calculated, pixel points with three channels smaller than a preset threshold value and with three channel values not equal to 0 are detected, and coordinates of the pixel points which possibly cause color cast are marked for guiding subsequent color cast correction processing.
And 102, performing color cast correction on the image to be enhanced according to the color cast point information.
And marking and positioning pixel points which can cause color cast in the image to be enhanced according to the color cast point information, adjusting according to the pixel information of the color cast points, and estimating the information lost by a certain channel of the color cast points.
In one possible embodiment, the color cast point information includes color cast point coordinates;
accordingly, step 102 includes:
determining a reference neighborhood of the target color bias point according to the coordinates of the target color bias point;
and correcting the target color bias point according to the pixel point information of the reference neighborhood to obtain the corrected pixel point information of the target color bias point.
Specifically, the lost information of the target color bias point is estimated and adjusted according to the pixel information of the pixel points around the target color bias point. Illustratively, pixel points within a certain size around a target bias color point are used as a reference neighborhood of the target bias color point, and the gray value of each channel of the current target bias color point is adjusted according to the gray value of the pixel in the reference neighborhood, so that the information lost by a certain channel is estimated. For example, the size of the reference neighborhood may be determined according to the actual color cast condition of the image, for example, and without limitation, the size of the range of the color cast region in the image capturing scene may be adjusted.
In a feasible embodiment, the correcting the target color bias point according to the pixel point information of the reference neighborhood to obtain the corrected pixel point information of the target color bias point includes:
obtaining a correction component value of the target color cast point target channel by adopting a linear smoothing algorithm to the component value of each pixel point target channel in the reference neighborhood; the target channel is any one of three channels.
Since the number of channels whose information is lost is not determined for the target color cast point, a correction process needs to be performed for each channel of the target color cast point. Specifically, a linear smoothing algorithm is adopted for component values of R channels of all pixel points in a reference neighborhood to obtain correction component values of the R channels of the target color bias points, and similarly, the G channels and the B channels are corrected in the same manner. For example, the linear smoothing algorithm may use average filtering as an example, and calculate by the following formula:
wherein, IC(x ', y') is the pixel point information in the image to be enhanced, DC(x ', y') is the corrected color image, L is the set of pixel points of the reference neighborhood of the target bias color point, and T is the total number of pixels in the reference neighborhood (9 in the case of 3 x 3 neighborhoods). And sequentially determining the correction value of three channels of the target color cast point through the formula.
And 103, performing contrast enhancement on the image to be enhanced after the color cast correction is performed to obtain an enhanced image.
Based on the image to be enhanced after color cast correction, contrast enhancement is carried out by adopting a contrast enhancement algorithm, so that the enhanced image not only meets the requirement of contrast enhancement, but also can keep the color of the image. Illustratively, the contrast enhancement algorithm includes histogram equalization and its modification algorithm, linear stretching transformation, exponential transformation, and the like.
The embodiment of the invention determines the information of the color cast points in the image to be enhanced based on the dark channel prior thought, thereby performing color cast correction on the color cast points in the image to be enhanced, and performing image contrast enhancement on the basis of the color cast correction so as to solve the problem of color distortion caused by contrast enhancement of a color image, thereby realizing the purposes of maintaining the image color while enhancing the image contrast to be enhanced, and improving the quality of the image after the contrast enhancement and the scene adaptability of the image contrast enhancement.
Example two
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of an image contrast enhancement method in the second embodiment of the present invention, and the second embodiment is further optimized based on the first embodiment. As shown in fig. 2, the method includes:
And 202, performing color cast correction on the image to be enhanced according to the color cast point information.
And step 203, converting the image to be enhanced after the color cast correction into a gray image.
If contrast enhancement processing is directly performed on the RGB three channels of the color image, since there is a correlation between the RGB three channels of the image (i.e., the RGB values jointly determine the color of a certain point of the image), if contrast enhancement is performed on the three channels, there will be a phenomenon that the enhancement degree of the three channels is not well controlled, resulting in color distortion of the color image after enhancement.
Therefore, the color image after color cast correction is converted into a gray image, then the contrast of the gray image is enhanced, and finally the gray image is restored into the color image, so that the problem that the enhancement degree of three channels of the color image is not easy to control is solved, and the color distortion phenomenon of the image is avoided.
The color image may be converted into a gray image by using an average value of three channels of RGB, or by using a color space conversion method. Illustratively, the grayscale image conversion is performed using the following formula:
Gin(x′，y′)＝0.299×IR(x′，y′)+0.587×IG(x′，y′)+0.114×IB(x′，y′)；
wherein, IR(x′，y′)、IG(x′，y′)、IB(x ', y') are R, G, B three-channel color components, G, respectively, of the image to be enhanced after the color cast correctionin(x ', y') is the converted grayscale image.
And step 204, carrying out contrast enhancement on the gray level image.
And stretching the brightness levels in the gray level image by using a contrast enhancement algorithm, widening the gray level distribution range of the input gray level image and improving the overall contrast of the image. Common contrast enhancement methods are histogram equalization and its modified algorithms, linear stretch transforms, exponential transforms, etc.
In one possible embodiment, contrast enhancement is performed on a grayscale image, comprising:
determining a contrast interval of the gray level image as an interval to be stretched;
determining an enhancement parameter according to the interval to be stretched and the target stretching interval;
and carrying out contrast enhancement on the gray-scale image according to the image information and the enhancement parameters of the gray-scale image.
The interval to be stretched refers to a contrast range determined according to the brightness level in the gray level image; the target stretching interval refers to a contrast range in the final enhanced image; the enhancement parameter is a parameter that needs to stretch the contrast in the grayscale image, such as a stretch ratio.
Illustratively, the input grayscale image is contrast enhanced using a linear stretching function. Contrast enhancement is performed using the following formula:
wherein, [ Ti ]L，TiR]In the zone to be stretched, Gout(x ', y') is an output gray image,Gin(x ', y') is an input gray image, a is a stretching multiple, b is a brightness gain, and a and b can be specifically calculated by the following formula:
wherein [ ToR，ToL]As a target stretching interval, if the input gray image is 8 bits, the value range is [0, 255 ]]。
And converting the gray level image subjected to the contrast enhancement processing into a color image, and recovering the color information of the image.
Illustratively, the image conversion is performed using the following formula:
wherein, OutCThe (x ', y') restored color image, i.e. the enhanced image, C e { R, G, B), S is a saturation parameter of 0.8, and can be set according to the actual scene, which is not limited herein. I isC(x ', y') is the image to be enhanced, Gin(x ', y') is the input grayscale image with contrast enhancement performed in step 204, Gout(x ', y') is the output grayscale image for contrast enhancement. Finally, the contrast-enhanced color image Out is outputC(x′，y′)。
The embodiment of the invention enhances the contrast of the image on the basis of color cast correction, and when the contrast is enhanced, the color image subjected to the color cast correction is converted into the gray image, the contrast of the gray image is enhanced, and finally the gray image subjected to the contrast enhancement is converted into the color image, so that the contrast enhancement of the color image to be enhanced is completed. The color image contrast enhancement method based on the color image contrast enhancement algorithm has the advantages that the color distortion problem after the contrast of certain scene images is enhanced is avoided while the color image contrast under different scenes is enhanced, the overall visual effect of the images is improved, and the scene adaptability of the color image contrast enhancement algorithm is improved.
