Abstract
An image de-noising method and an apparatus thereof are disclosed, which includes categorizing a pixel in a current frame into a first low-frequency pixel having a first weight and a first high-frequency pixel having a second weight; categorizing a previous pixel corresponding to the position of the pixel in a previous frame into a second low-frequency pixel having a third weight and a second high-frequency pixel having a fourth weight; adjusting the first weight and the third weight and calculating the weighted sum of the first low-frequency pixel and the second low-frequency pixel, to generate low-frequency pixel data; adjusting the second weight and the fourth weight and calculating the weighted sum of the first high-frequency pixel and the second high-frequency pixel, to generate high-frequency pixel data; and calculating the sum of the low-frequency pixel data and the high-frequency pixel data, to output the de-noised pixel.
