Title:
IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE FOR CORRECTING IMAGE MASSIVE FEELING, IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND ELECTRONIC CAMERA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/097125
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An image processing device includes a luminance fluctuation extraction unit, a color difference fluctuation extraction unit, a conversion unit, and an addition unit. The luminance fluctuation extraction unit extracts a local fluctuation component (hereinafter, referred to a luminance fluctuation) from the luminance information in the image data. The color difference fluctuation extraction unit extracts a local fluctuation component (hereinafter, referred to a color difference fluctuation) from the color difference information in the image data. The conversion unit performs a weighted addition of the luminance fluctuation and the color difference fluctuation to generate a pseudo massive feeling component of the luminance. The addition unit adds the generated massive feeling component to the luminance information. In the aforementioned configuration, the conversion unit adjusts and modifies the weighting ratio of the weighted addition so that the noise ratios between the color components contained in the massive feeling component become identical.
