[0085] (1) Blind element modeling

[0086] (1) Definition and classification of blind elements

[0087] Blind pixels include two types: dead pixels and abnormal response pixels.

[0088] A dead pixel refers to a pixel whose response rate is less than 1 / 10 of the average response rate. Its output signal does not change with the change of input radiation, and it appears as a bright or dark point on the original image.

[0089] The pixel with abnormal response refers to the pixel whose response value is 4 times higher than the average response value or lower than 1 / 4 of the average response value. Responsive outlier cells work fine, but cause large residual spatial noise if not replaced.

[0090] (2) Mathematical model of blind element

[0091] ① Pixel response rate

[0092] Assume that the detector (IRFPA) is an M×N infrared focal plane array. In an infrared focal plane array with a pixel responsivity R(i, j), under a certain frame period and a certain dynamic range, the ou...

Abstract

The invention discloses a cubic spline-based infrared thermal image blind pixel compensation algorithm, which comprises the following steps of: obtaining a blind pixel distribution map of an infrared thermal image by blind pixel detection; for each blind pixel point, constructing cubic splines of a row direction and a column direction in a way of taking coordinates of pixels in a row and a column where the blind pixel is in the infrared thermal image as interpolation nodes respectively, calculating interpolated values of the two cubic splines at the blind pixel point respectively, and taking a mean value of the two interpolated values as a primary compensation value of the blind pixel; after all the blind pixels in the infrared thermal image are subjected to the primary compensation, performing secondary compensation on the blind pixels; for each blind pixel point, constructing the cubic splines of the row direction and the column direction in a way of taking the coordinates of the pixels in the row and the column where the blind pixel is and the coordinates of the other blind pixels subjected to the primary compensation in the infrared thermal image as the interpolation nodes respectively, calculating the interpolated values of the two cubic splines at the blind pixel point respectively, and taking the mean value of the two interpolated values as a secondary compensation value of the blind pixel; and traversing all the blind pixels in the infrared thermal image to obtain the infrared thermal image subjected to the secondary blind pixel compensation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of infrared thermal image processing, in particular to an algorithm research on a new blind element compensation mechanism based on infrared thermal images in an infrared focal plane thermal imaging system. Background technique [0002] At present, infrared focal plane array (IRFPA), as a new generation detector, has been widely used in many fields such as military, medical treatment, fire protection, transportation, electric power, construction, electronic manufacturing and petrochemical metallurgy. The imaging quality of the infrared thermal video dynamic imaging system composed of infrared focal plane array (IRFPA) has increasingly affected and restricted the development of related industries. Due to the limitation of the semiconductor manufacturing process level, it is inevitable that there will be some defects on the (IRFPA) device. Therefore, blind pixels (that is, bad pixels and abnormal response pixels) are g...
