Abstract
An angle calculation unit calculates an angle formed by color difference signals R-Y, B-Y of each input pixel. Correction gain calculation units use the angle as a parameter to generate correction gains of hue, chroma, luminance (Y) gamma, and chroma (C) gamma for only correction regions. Accumulators accumulate the respective correction gains. In a circuit including from a multiplier () to a multiplier (), the color difference signals R-Y, B-Y are multiplied by the correction gains of hue and chroma to correct the hue and chroma. A luminance/color difference gamma processing unit uses a correction function and correction gains of Y, C gammas to gamma-correct a luminance signal Y and color difference signals R-Y, B-Y.
