A method for processing a static pattern in an image and a circuit system are provided. In the method, each of frames of a video is divided into multiple areas. Several algorithms are used to calculate a static pattern index of every area. The static pattern index is used as a reference for determining if the area covers part or entire of a static pattern. An index threshold can be used to check the areas that are determined as the static pattern initially. A time threshold is then used to confirm the areas with the static pattern in every frame. Image data of the areas which are determined as the static patterns can then be adjusted, such as having brightness of the area that is determined as part or entire of the static patterns decreased, for preventing the display panel from negative effects of the static pattern.

Method for processing static pattern in an image and circuit system

A method for video quality detection and an image processing circuit thereof are provided. In the method, an image-processing circuit receives video signals with at least one frame image, and obtains brightness information of pixels from the frame image. A threshold is applied to the pixels of each frame in order to screen the brightness features that can be regarded as an attribute of each frame image. Therefore, a brightness distribution feature with respect to the pixels of each frame image can be obtained by a statistic method. Statistics showing the brightness distribution can be used to determine a quality of each frame image or a video. The image processing circuit can accordingly select an image processing process corresponding to the image quality of each frame image or the whole video.

Method for video quality detection and image processing circuit using the same

An image processing apparatus includes a high-frequency component translating unit, a high-frequency component extracting unit, a detail-gain generating unit and an image output unit. The high-frequency component translating unit extracts and translates first high-frequency components of an input image to generate a first image. The high-frequency component extracting unit extracts second high-frequency components to generate a second image. The detail-gain generating unit stores a conversion table and generates detail gains respectively associated with input pixels in the input image according to pixel values of the input pixels and the conversion table. The image output unit calculates a weighted superposition of the first image and the second image and generates a high frequency component of an output image according to the weighted superposition and the detail gains.
