METHOD AND APPARATUS WITH CONTRAST ADJUSTMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17680934 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS WITH CONTRAST ADJUSTMENT

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for image processing using an offset pattern and parameter to enhance the contrast of a degraded image.

  • The method involves setting an offset window and an offset parameter for a kernel offset.
  • An output kernel is determined by applying the kernel offset to an input kernel based on the offset window and parameter.
  • The contrast of a degraded image is adjusted using the output kernel.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Image enhancement in various fields such as medical imaging, surveillance, and photography.
  • Improving the visibility and clarity of images in low-light conditions or with high levels of noise.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Enhances the contrast of degraded images, making them easier to analyze and interpret.
  • Helps to improve the quality and visibility of images in challenging conditions.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Provides a method for effectively enhancing the contrast of degraded images.
  • Can be applied to various types of images and in different industries.
  • Offers a solution for improving image quality and visibility in challenging conditions.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method with image processing includes: setting an offset window for an offset pattern of a kernel offset and an offset parameter for an application intensity of the kernel offset; determining an output kernel by applying the kernel offset to an input kernel based on the offset window and the offset parameter; and adjusting contrast of a degraded image using the output kernel.
