IMAGE PROCESSING OF DCT-BASED VIDEO SEQUENCES IN COMPRESSED DOMAIN

摘要

This invention relates to a method for applying at least one of contrast adjustment and brightness adjustment to a compressed, motion compensated DCT-based video sequence corresponding to an image processing operation, comprising the steps of providing the compressed, motion compensated DCT-based video sequence, applying the image processing operation on the video sequence in compressed domain resulting in an image processed, compressed video sequence, wherein the applying is executed by adjusting of DCT- components defining the DCT-based video sequence.
