Problems solved by technology

When estimating the light source color of an image, if the image features do not meet the limited assumptions or the prior knowledge is insufficient, the accuracy of the light source color estimation will be affected, resulting in a large error in the light source estimation result.

Abstract

The invention discloses a color constancy method based on light source color distribution limitation. The steps of the present invention are as follows: step (1) constructing accurate color gamut ranges for different cameras, and calculating the blackbody locus of the camera space; step (2) constructing the color gamut range of light source color distribution based on the blackbody locus; step (3) using existing colors The constancy method estimates the light source color of the image; step (4) judges the light source estimation result, if it is within the range of the color gamut, it will not be processed, and if it is not within the range of the color gamut, then map the light source estimation result to the color within the gamut boundary; Step (5) transforms the corrected chromaticity point into RGB space, and the point obtained by the color gamut mapping is the corrected chromaticity point of the estimated light source. The present invention maps the result of the existing color constancy method that the light source estimation is not in the color gamut to the boundary of the color gamut, thereby reducing the light source estimation error and improving the robustness of various color constancy methods.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method of color constancy based on the limitation of the color distribution of light sources. It belongs to the technical fields of computer vision, image processing and color enhancement. Background technique [0002] Color can intuitively express the surface characteristics of objects, and plays an important role in the practical application of image processing and computer vision. However, the formation of color is often affected by changes in lighting conditions, resulting in extremely unstable expression of the color feature of the image. The human eye has the visual characteristic of constant color, even when the scene lighting source changes, the color perception of the object can still remain relatively unchanged. Since the digital imaging system does not have the color constant visual characteristics of the human eye, it is vulnerable to image color instability due to changes in lighting conditions during imaging. ...
