Problems solved by technology

However, the algorithm uses a local linear model to represent filtering. In many applications, there are other types of noise besides Gaussian noise. At this time, the local linear model cannot filter the image very well, and nonlinear filtering needs to be considered

Embodiment Construction

[0024] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] An image enhancement method based on nonlinear guided filtering, the steps comprising:

[0026] 1) Original image preprocessing: In order to improve the calculation speed, the image is first sub-sampled;

[0027] 2) Constructing a nonlinear guided filter: the key to construct a guided filter is to find the nonlinear relationship between the guided filter and the input image or guided image, let I be the input image, g be the guided image, I out is the image after guided filtering, and the nonlinear guided filtering at point s uses a window w centered at point s s The nonlinear representation of the input pixels in is as follows: I out (s) = a s I 2 (k)+b s I(k)+c s ,k∈w s , if the coefficient a s is 0, the nonlinear guided filter degenerates into a linear guided filter;

[0028] 3) Calculating the coefficients of nonlinear gui...

Abstract

The invention discloses an image enhancement method based on nonlinear guided filtering, which belongs to the technical field of image processing. The present invention constructs a local nonlinear guided filtering model, and then solves the corresponding guided filtering coefficients. In order to further improve the efficiency and reduce the time complexity, the present invention sub-samples the input image and performs nonlinear guided filtering, and then restores the size of the original image by means of bilinear interpolation. The present invention can be applied to many different computer vision fields, such as image smoothing, image detail enhancement, HDR image compression, uniform fog removal and other operations. At the same time, the algorithm is simple and efficient in calculation and has good realizability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to image processing technology, in particular to an image enhancement method based on nonlinear guided filtering. Background technique [0002] With the development of modern technology and the increasing popularity of portable devices, it is very easy for people to obtain scene images, and gradually put forward higher requirements for imaging quality. However, due to the influence of various factors, the quality of the obtained image is often degraded. In order to improve the quality of the image and enhance the visual effect of the image, it is necessary to perform some image enhancement operations on the degraded image, such as image smoothing, image sharpening, and detail enhancement. and remove smog etc. [0003] For images affected by different factors, there are many representative algorithms for enhancement processing. Noise is an important factor affecting image quality. According to different noise characteristics, res...
