Abstract
For processing image data generated for a color filter array, classifiers are generated from the image data. A predetermined color component is determined by directional-interpolating the image data depending on the classifiers. Chrominance components are generated from linear-interpolated image data and the directional-interpolated predetermined color component. The chrominance components are directional-interpolated, and color components are extracted from the directional-interpolated chrominance components.
Claims20
A method of processing image data generated according to a color filter array, comprising:
- generating classifiers from the image data;
- directional-interpolating a predetermined color component from the image data depending on the classifiers;
- and
- generating chrominance components from the directional-interpolated predetermined color component and image data for at least one other color component aside from the predetermined color component.
An apparatus for processing image data generated according to a color filter array, comprising:
- a classifier calculator for generating classifiers from the image data;
- a first directional interpolator for directional-interpolating a predetermined color component from the image data depending on the classifiers;
- and
- a color difference calculator for generating chrominance components from the directional-interpolated predetermined color component and image data for at least one other color component aside from the predetermined color component.
