Information entropy-based snowflake noise detection method

Abstract

The present invention relates to an information entropy-based snowflake noise detection method. The overall distribution state of the gray values of pixels is obtained; a previous image frame and a subsequent image frame are converted into a gray space; the gray values of all the pixels are clustered into n intervals, and the distribution state of the gray values of the pixels is displayed in the form of a grey level histogram; the information entropy of the previous image frame and the subsequent image frame are calculated; and whether snowflake noises exist in a video stream is judged according to the change amplitude of the information entropy of the previous image frame and the subsequent image frame. According to the method of the invention, when an actual calculated value is not smaller than a set threshold value, and the value of the subsequent image frame is larger than value of the previous frame, or when the actual calculated value is smaller than the set threshold value, while, the previous frame is marked as a noise frame, it can be finally determined that snowflake noises actually exist, otherwise, it is considered that the images are normal images. The method of the invention has high accuracy in video snowflake noise detection and also lays a good foundation for snowflake noise elimination for obtaining a better visual effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for detecting snowflake noise in a video stream, in particular to a method for detecting snowflake noise by using the characteristic value of image information entropy as an evaluation index, performing corresponding comparison processing on frames before and after the video stream, and obtaining the final noise detection result method. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of computer technology and communication technology and other fields, people's requirements for the visual effect of image data are also increasing, but the noise caused by signal interference and line problems is still one of the main factors affecting the visual viewing effect. including snowflake noise. Now, more and more attention has been paid to the processing in this aspect, and detecting noise is a key step in removing noise. [0003] So far, there have been some viewpoints and methods for the detection of snowfl...

In Qiu Mingjie's paper "Research and Implementation of Surveillance Video Image Quality Diagnosis Method", it is proposed to use noise points and SNR value to comprehensively judge noise, but it does not take into account the characteristics of snowflake noise belonging to the global distribution of images, resulting in some unnecessary false detections ; In the journal article "Image Quality Detection in Video Surveillance" by Liu Qu, Zhang Guimao, and Liu Xiang, a method of using small windows to calculate the variance of local images is proposed, which is also based on the gray value of noise points and normal pixels difference, but it is based on the detection of the image itself rather than the detection of the video; in the patent "A System and Method for Monitoring Snowflake Noise in Surveillance Video" (Patent No.: 201410636977.2), by randomly selecting several images of the same frame before and after Sub-blocks with the same size, compare their mean square error for preliminary judgment, and then calculate the SNR value to finally judge the noise. This method starts from the block, although it reduces the workload to a certain extent than starting from the pixel point, but there are chances. False detection

In the patent "A Video Anomaly Detection Method Based on Machine Learning" (Patent No.: 201310722563.7), it is men
