Image processing device, image processing method, program, and integrated circuit

摘要

An image processing device (10) includes: a representative pixel value storage unit (12) which selects one of plural sub-pixels as a representative sub-pixel, and store, into a representative pixel value storage area, a representative pixel value which is a pixel value of the representative sub-pixel; and a sub-pixel value storage unit (13) which stores, into a sub-pixel value storage area, pixel values of sub-pixels other than the representative sub-pixel, wherein the sub-pixel value storage area stores one or more sets corresponding to N number of pixels, the one or more sets each including a pixel position and a pixel value of each sub-pixel other than the representative sub-pixel of a pixel at the pixel position, N being a natural number smaller than a total number of the plural pixels in the unit of processing for an edge determination unit (11).

主权项

1. An image processing device for processing pixels in image data, wherein the unit size of the processing is a unit of processing including plural pixels, said image processing device comprising:
an edge determination unit configured to determine, for each of the plural pixels in the unit of processing, whether the pixel includes a predetermined edge; a representative pixel value storage unit configured to, for each of the plural pixels, select one of plural sub-pixels obtained by dividing the pixel, as a representative sub-pixel, and store, into a representative pixel value storage area, a representative pixel value which is a pixel value of the representative sub-pixel; and a sub-pixel value storage unit configured to store, into a sub-pixel value storage area, pixel values of two or more of the plural sub-pixels in each of pixels determined by the edge determination unit to include the predetermined edge, the two or more of the plural sub-pixels being other than the representative sub-pixel selected by the representative pixel value storage unit, wherein the sub-pixel value storage area stores one or more sets corresponding to N number of pixels, the one or more sets each including a pixel position and a pixel value of each sub-pixel other than the representative sub-pixel of a pixel at the pixel position, N being a natural number greater than zero and smaller than a total number of the plural pixels in the unit of processing for the edge determination unit.
