Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Various aspects of a method and a system for image processing are disclosed herein. The method includes processing an input image, which comprises structure information and detail information, using image processing (IP) blocks in an image processing pipeline. One or more of the IP blocks, such as the “lossy” IP blocks, process the input image with at least a partial loss of the detail information. By replacing the “lossy” IP blocks with redesigned image processing (IP) modules, the image processing pipeline reduces or avoids such loss of the detail information. A more efficient implementation of the improved pipeline is realized by using a master IP module when the “lossy” IP blocks are reordered and grouped together in the image processing pipeline. The method is further extended to process 3-D images to reduce or avoid loss of detail information in a 3-D image processing pipeline.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . An image processing method comprising: in an image processing device: extracting structure information and detail information from an input image; processing said extracted structure information by a first set of image processing (IP) blocks in an image processing pipeline, wherein said first set of IP blocks processes said input image with at least a partial loss of said detail information; processing said extracted detail information by one or more…
