Abstract
The invention concerns a method of image processing involving: receiving, by a processing device, an input image (IB) captured by a pixel array sensitive to infrared radiation; determining, based on the input image and on a column component vector (VCOL), a first scale factor (α) by estimating a level of the column spread present in the input image; generating column offset values (α.VCOL(y)) based on the product of the first scale factor with the values of the vector; determining, based on the input image and on a 2D dispersion matrix (IDISP), a second scale factor (β) by estimating a level of the 2D dispersion present in the input image; generating pixel offset values (β.IDISP(x,y)) based on the product of the second scale factor with the values of the matrix; and generating a corrected image (IC') by applying the column and pixel offset values.
