DISPLAY APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD THEREOF FOR APPLYING RANDOM PATCHES TO PIXEL BLOCK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18603334 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD THEREOF FOR APPLYING RANDOM PATCHES TO PIXEL BLOCK

The image processing apparatus described in the patent application utilizes random patches to enhance the quality of an input image through correlation and weighting techniques.

  • The apparatus stores information on random patches in memory.
  • The processor obtains correlations between pixel blocks in the input image and random patches.
  • Weights are calculated based on these correlations and applied to the random patches.
  • The weighted random patches are then applied to the pixel block to generate an output image.

Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is an image processing apparatus and a method of operating the same. The image processing apparatus includes: a memory storing information on at least one random patch; and at least one processor configured to: obtain correlations between a pixel block included in an input image and each of a plurality of random patches obtained from the information on the at least one random patch, obtain weights respectively for the plurality of random patches on a basis of the obtained correlations and apply the weights respectively to the plurality of random patches, and obtain an output image by applying, to the pixel block, the plurality of random patches to which the weights are respectively applied.
