〈発明が解決しようとする課題〉
ところで、上記従来の輪郭強調装置によると、輪郭強調
のレベルが、輪郭の両側の輝度レベル差に応じて略決定
されることになるため、例えば同じレベル差であっても
色によって輪郭補正のレベルを変化させたいという要求
があっても、これに対応することができなかった。This contour enhancement circuit adds or subtracts, for example, an averaged and blurred sub-signal sampled with an aperture several times larger than the main signal to the main signal, thereby producing an unsharp mask signal ( There is a method that obtains a signal in which the outline of the image is emphasized by obtaining an unsharp mask signal (contour emphasis signal) and adding this unsharp mask signal to the main signal. In addition, the green signal (luminance signal) of the three primary color signals is differentiated to extract the contour signal, and a contour emphasis signal proportional to this is added to each of the original three primary color signals to obtain an image signal in which the contour is emphasized. There are also methods. <Problems to be Solved by the Invention> By the way, according to the above-mentioned conventional edge enhancement device, the level of edge enhancement is approximately determined depending on the difference in brightness level on both sides of the edge. Even if there was a demand for changing the level of contour correction depending on the color, it was not possible to meet this demand.
例えば、被写体が人物であった場合には、肌の部分の輪

の輪郭強調を和らげるといったことができなかったもの
である。For example, if the subject is a person, emphasizing the contours of the skin may give an unnatural impression or make the person look hard, so it is important to ensure the sharpness of the background etc. However, as mentioned above, conventional contour correction devices emphasize contours based on signal level differences, regardless of color, so the sharpness of the background is However, it was not possible to soften the emphasis on the contours of only the skin area as described above while ensuring the same quality.

れる。Examples> Examples of the present invention will be described below. In FIG. 1 showing one embodiment, an edge enhancement correction circuit 1 receives a color image signal with a brightness (brightness) of L. It is separated into chroma (saturation level, color density) C and hue (color tone) H and is done manually. The brightness. saturation. For example, the color image signal separated into hues is divided into three primary colors (R, G, B or Y,
After decomposing into M and C), each of the three primary colors is converted into an electric image signal, and these three primary color electric image signals are converted into lightness L, chroma C. Obtained by converting to hue H.

It is determined whether the color of the image is included in the skin color area (the shaded area in Figure 3) set according to the level range of each hue H, and if the image is included in the predetermined skin color area, the skin color area is By making the enhancement coefficient K smaller than in other cases, only the skin-colored portion is lightly emphasized in outline compared to other portions. As a result, when the image to be contour-corrected is a human image, it is possible to prevent skin-colored areas from being contour-corrected more strongly than necessary, resulting in an unnatural image, while enhancing the sharpness of other areas by enhancing the contours. can be improved.

る。Then, in the contour emphasizing section 6, the multiplier 5 uses an emphasizing coefficient K.
The difference signal USM, which is finally set by multiplying by Output as an emphasized signal L° (see Figure 2) Next, Figure 4 shows the details of the contour correction control performed according to the hardware configuration shown in the block diagram of Figure 1 above, with reference to Figure 2. This will be briefly explained according to the flowchart. First, the input brightness signal L is averaged to generate a blurred blur signal U (Sl), and by adding and subtracting this blur signal U and the brightness signal L, a difference signal is generated in which only the outline of the image is emphasized. (Unsharp signal) Obtain USM (S2
). Then, the input brightness L, chroma C. It is determined whether the image is included in a preset skin color area based on the hue H (S3), and if it is in the skin color area, a predetermined value K1 is set to the emphasis coefficient K (34), and if it is not in the skin color area, the predetermined value K1 is set. A predetermined value K2, which is larger than the value K, is set as the emphasis coefficient K (S5). Since the larger the emphasis coefficient 'K' is, the higher the outline emphasis level is, by controlling the setting of the emphasis coefficient K, the outline emphasis level is weakened in the skin color area.

S6) By adding the level-adjusted difference signal (unsharp signal) USM multiplied by the emphasis coefficient K to the original brightness signal L (main signal), only the contour portion based on the brightness signal L is emphasized and corrected. and output it (S7).

類以上に切り換えるようにしても良い。In this embodiment, the emphasis level is switched depending on whether the image is included in the skin color area, but the predetermined color area is not limited to the skin color area, and may include multiple types of color areas (brightness, chroma). It is also possible to set the contour enhancement level corresponding to the intensity and hue) and switch the enhancement level to three or more types.

うにすることも可能である。In addition, variable control of the emphasis level in a predetermined color area can be selected using an external operation switch, so that it is possible to arbitrarily switch between contour enhancement performed independently of color and variable control of the contour correction level limited to a predetermined color area. Furthermore, it is also possible to make it possible to change the predetermined color area in which the emphasis level in contour correction is variably controlled by an external operation.
