IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE, METHOD THEREOF, AND A COMPUTER READABLE NON TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM STORING AN IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM

摘要

An image processing device includes, a block division unit configured to divide at least a part of an area of an input image into a plurality of blocks; a block classification unit configured to classify each block in the input image into a white block and a black block based on a variance of luminance values in a white block that typically includes white pixels and a variance of luminance values in a black block that includes at least black pixels among white pixels and black pixels; and a luminance correction unit configured to correct a luminance value of each pixel in a black block in the input image based on an average luminance value of pixels in one or more white blocks in the vicinity of the black block.
