Abstract
A night-scene light source detecting device includes a pixel value obtaining unit configured to obtain a pixel value of each pixel in an input image; a night-scene-feature extraction unit provided for extracting a zone area of a mean corrected-brightness value and a high corrected-brightness value of the input image as two night-scene features based on the pixel value of each pixel in the input image; a night-scene image detection unit provided for determining whether the input image is a night-scene image or not based on the two night-scene features; a specific color detection unit provided for detecting whether each pixel belongs to specific color or not; and a night-scene light source determining unit provided for determining whether the night-scene image is picked up under irradiation by the specific light sources in a night scene or not based on the result of the specific color detection.
