Method and apparatus for adaptive and self-calibrated sensor green channel gain balancing

摘要

A method and apparatus for adaptive green channel odd-even mismatch removal to effectuate the disappearance of artifacts caused by the odd-even mismatch in a demosaic processed image. In one example, a calibrated GR channel gain for red rows and a calibrated GB channel gain for blue rows are determined and are a function of valid pixels only in each respective region. After the calibration, in a correction process, the green pixels in red rows of a region are multiplied by the calibrated GR channel gain, and the green pixels in blue rows are multiplied by the calibrated GB channel gain.
