Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a method for backlight modulation and image processing, particularly for appropriately adjusting backlight brightness for different image data, and reprocessing original image data to Match the brightness of the backlight after modulation, and maintain the original image quality. [Prior Art] In order to save power consumption, an electronic device with an LCD screen in the early stage will design a simple function of changing the backlight brightness on the backlight module. The user can set the backlight brightness to be different according to the operating state of different electronic devices. Bright mode or normal mode. In bright mode, the brightness is about 400 cd/m2; in the normal mode, the brightness is about 250 cd/m2 for easy power saving. However, there are two problems worthy of improvement in the way of modulating the brightness of the backlight. First, it is necessary to change the backlight mode according to the user's operating state, which is a step for the user; second, for For different input image information, the over-bright or over-bright backlight will affect the image quality of the output, which will cause discomfort when viewing the human eye.

The foreground data generally belongs to the moving object, while the back view belongs to the stationary background, so the brightness is adjusted for the stationary background, and only Let the moving object maintain its original brightness. However, there are still two problems in this method that need to be improved. First, in the adjustment control part of the flat display device, if the user works in the normal operation mode, the power saving mode will be activated, and the power saving effect cannot be achieved. It is also not user-friendly. Secondly, when the user works in the power-saving mode, since only part of the pixel area will maintain the original brightness, and the brightness of other areas will be reduced, the entire display will be given to the sub-user's vision. The effect may become dark or cause visual discomfort; thirdly, for a backlit liquid crystal display, the image quality of the 200931389 may be deteriorated due to a decrease in the refresh rate. Further, Japanese Patent Publication No. 08-201812 discloses a liquid crystal display device which can dynamically modulate a backlight to improve a conventional control mode. The liquid crystal display device mainly includes an average brightness detecting circuit and a backlight control portion. For example, when the average brightness detecting circuit detects an average brightness level of a picture (picture) When the average brightness level is high, the backlight control circuit is used to reduce the brightness of the backlight. The case can effectively reduce the phenomenon that the liquid crystal display device is too bright or too dark, so that the user can easily and comfortably use the liquid crystal display device, and the user can directly view and feel the dynamic display effect of the image; in other words, That is to improve the contrast characteristics of the dark screen and the bright screen. However, when the average brightness order is low (1 )), the brightness of the liquid crystal display device is improved and the image quality is improved, and the liquid crystal display device (LCD portion) may have a portion when the black ruthenium is displayed. The light leaks from the backlight portion. This phenomenon of light leakage is called loss of true black, which causes the display image to appear whitish and the display effect is deteriorated. Therefore, although the backlight brightness is increased, the disadvantage of pure black loss is also increased. Further, Japanese Patent No. 2001-27890 discloses an image display device and a scene display mode in which a contrast of an image signal and a brightness of a backlight are dynamically adjusted in a specific relationship. The patented technology increases the dynamic range of the image signal according to a compensation value; the compensation value is based on the degree of average brightness and image signal displacement as reference 200931389. In this way, the contrast of the image is increased on the display screen, and at the same time, the brightness of the backlight is controlled by the adjustment to blur the difference in brightness between the image and the backlight. Therefore, the contrast of the image can be improved by the above processing. However, if an image that is not full (Peng Chou) is included, the dynamic range of the image break will be expanded immediately. Therefore, the defect of the image will be emphasized, and the user will be identified as a defect. If the dynamic range of the image signal is mixed with a noise signal component, and then expanded, the noise signal component will be emphasized and will be identified as a defect by the user. Further, 'Japanese Patent No. 06-102484 discloses a dynamic degree of modulation by correlation of an image signal with a backlight control signal. That is, when a signal is dark 1 eve 1 and the dark level is greater than the threshold value, the backlight brightness is lowered and the dynamic range of the image signal is expanded at the same time. Conversely, if the dark level is not greater than the boundary value, no adjustment will be made to the backlight brightness and image signal. In the case where the image area of the bright level is not affected, the above-described modulation can reduce the unevenness of the brightness of the dark image area. However, the adjustment of the image signal and the brightness of the backlight is mainly based on the analysis of the dark information of the image signal without referring to other information, such as the average brightness of the image signal, etc., therefore, when the image has no 'dark order When it exists, the image signal will not be adjusted, which means that the quality of the image will not be improved. The method of dynamically modulating the image signal and the backlight control signal is also disclosed in the U.S. Patent No. 7,053,881, which is to improve the disadvantages of the aforementioned Japanese Patent Application No. 08-201812. The main flow of the method is to transmit another image signal, and simultaneously transmit it to the display control unit (dispiay 8 200931389 control portion), the average brightness detecting portion (Uverage brightness detecting portion), and the peak detecting portion for processing. The display control unit converts the input image signal into a data mode that the display device can display; the average real product detection unit performs an average brightness calculation on the image signal of the entire image, and averages the processed image. The brightness signal value (ave_signal) is transmitted to the backlight control unit as a reference value for backlight modulation; and the peak detection unit performs peak value calculation for the content of different image signals. The result may be a high state. (high state, 1) and low state (iow state '0), and also provide a peak signal to the backlight control unit as a reference value for backlight modulation. Therefore, in the backlight control unit, the backlight is modulated by referring to the average luminance signal value and the peak signal value at the same time. Although the method of improving the contrast of the displayed image by the addition of the peak detecting portion is affected by the brightness change, the image quality is lowered and the original image cannot be maintained. Therefore, the present invention provides a method for backlight modulation and image processing in response to the above problems and disadvantages, so that the backlight can be modulated without blurring and affecting the visual perception of the user while maintaining the image quality. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a method for backlight modulation and image processing, which obtains an average image level value by analyzing and calculating image information of each image, and calculates an average image level value according to an average image level value. The image needs to be reduced by the backlight shell degree, thereby achieving the purpose of backlight modulation, and simultaneously converting and resetting the image information 9 200931389 through the color model, thereby obtaining an image output value 'to make modulation There is no flicker in the backlight, which affects the user's visual perception, while maintaining the color tone of the image and enhancing contrast. In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a backlight modulation and image processing method, which includes the following steps: obtaining an average picture level (APL) and then obtaining a backlight adjustment rate, wherein the average image is obtained.

Step S217: accumulating the number of pixels of each grayscale value from the low grayscale value to the high grayscale value to obtain a cumulative number of pixels, thereby analyzing the brightness ratio of the image; Step S218: judging the accumulation Whether the number of primes is equal to the product of the total number of halogens and the percentage difference of the percentage of halogens or the minimum integer quantity of the product of the total number of halogens and the percentage of the percentage of the primes; and step S219: when the result of step 218 is that the number of accumulated pixels is equal to total When the product of the number of elements and the percentage difference of the percentage of the element is greater than the minimum quantity of the product of the total number of pixels and the percentage difference of the percentage of the pixels, the gray level value at this time is taken as the average image level. Please refer to FIG. 2c again, which is a graph for capturing image information according to the present invention, which uses Histogram Analysis to obtain an average image level (APL) value; and the extraction step is to analyze an image. For example, the grayscale value of each element of the information, and then count the number of pixels of each grayscale value, thereby knowing the brightness ratio of the image, and knowing the total number of pixels of the image information. In order to make appropriate light and dark changes to the brightness and darkness ratio of the image, 200931389 1 'Accumulate the number of pixels of each grayscale value from the high grayscale value in the analysis chart to the low grayscale value to obtain a cumulative pixel. Quantity, and determine whether the number of accumulated pixels is equal to the product of the total pixel and the percentage of the halogen element or the minimum integer quantity of the product of the number of the element and the percentage of the element of the halogen; when the result of the break is the number of accumulated pixels is equal to the total When the product of the number of elements and the ratio of the number of elements is greater than the minimum quantity of the product of the total number of elements and the percentage of pixels, the gray level value at this time is taken as the average image level. For example, if the default percentage of the pixel is 25%, after dividing the image information by 2, you can know the brightness ratio of the image, and the number of image information is as low as gray. The step value accumulates each gray scale value, the number of pixels, to obtain a cumulative number of pixels. When the number of accumulated pixels is equal to 25% of the total number of pixels, then the gray scale value at this time is taken as the average image standard. Bit value. If the number of pixels of each grayscale value is accumulated from the low grayscale value to the high grayscale value to obtain a cumulative number of pixels, the number of values of the predetermined pixel is first subtracted from the value „1. The percentage of the percentage of the pixel is w, and the difference of the percentage of pixels is 75%. When the number of accumulated pixels is equal to 75% of the total number of pixels, the gray value at this time is taken as the average image level. Please refer to FIG. 3a and FIG. 3b'. FIG. 3b is a flow block diagram of the image processing step of the present invention, and FIG. 3b is a linear relationship diagram of the flat image level value and the backlight adjustment rate of the present invention; The method includes the following steps: Step S221: setting a variable value (var); Step S222: obtaining a maximum average image level value 14 200931389 (APL_); Step S223: obtaining a reference value (m); and Step S224: obtaining a backlight Variability.

最大平均圖像準位值(APL_)係藉由讀取圖像資訊 之一影像資料位元數η後計算而得,如果圖像位元數為 8,則平均圖像準位值之最大值為28-1,而參考值(m) 係等於最大平均圖像準位值(APL_〇除以1與變數值間 差值(Ι-var)之整數值,或大於最大平均圖像準位值 (APLmax)除以1與變數值間差值(1-var)之最小整數值, 也就是說 m = APLmax/(l-var),其中 m 為整數,或 m>APLniax/(l-var),其中m取最小整數; 背光調變率(BackDim)係將平均圖像準位值(APL)除以 參考值(m)後再加上變數值(var)後而取得,也就是說背 光調變率可以寫成如下述之方程式The maximum average image level value (APL_) is calculated by reading the number of image data bits η of the image information. If the number of image bits is 8, the maximum value of the average image level is obtained. Is 28-1, and the reference value (m) is equal to the maximum average image level value (APL_〇 divided by the integer value of the difference between 1 and the variable value (Ι-var), or greater than the maximum average image level The value (APLmax) is divided by the smallest integer value of the difference (1-var) between 1 and the variable value, that is, m = APLmax / (l-var), where m is an integer, or m > APLniax / (l-var) ), where m is the smallest integer; backlight modulation rate (BackDim) is obtained by dividing the average image level (APL) by the reference value (m) and adding the variable value (var), that is, the backlight The modulation rate can be written as the equation below

BackDim =(APL/m)+ var 。 舉例來說,若將變數值設為0. 5,而圖像位元數為 8,則最大平均圖像準位值(APL_)為255,所以可進一 步計算出參考值(m)為數值510,所以背光調變方程式 則可寫成BackDim = (APL/m) + var . For example, if the variable value is set to 0.5 and the number of image bits is 8, the maximum average image level value (APL_) is 255, so the reference value (m) can be further calculated as the value 510. , so the backlight modulation equation can be written as

BackDim=(APL/510)+0.5 , 因此在取得平均圖像準位值後,即可將平均圖像準位值 (APL)代入背光調變方程式中,以取得背光調變率。又 因平均圖像準位值與背光調變率呈線性關係,所以在背 15 200931389 光調整之過程中,圖像之亮度變化能夠更適應性地進行 調變處理’使得圖像不論是在靜態或是動態顯示的過程 中,會有閃爍的現象發生,並且根據不同之圖像,背光 調變就會有不同的調變結果。 請再參考圖1 ’其中步驟S300係包括: 步驟S310:取得一第—亮度因子; 步驟S320 :建立一亮度因子重置模型; 步驟S330 :根據亮度因子重置模型將第—亮度 因子重置為一第二亮度因子; 步驟S340 :取得一比例因子;以及 步驟S350 :取得一圖像輸出值。 而步驟S310之方法係將圖像資料由一 _色彩模型 轉換為-YUV色彩模型後操取m色彩模型中之亮度因 子而得。因YUV色彩模型中Y為亮度因子、u及色 彩因子’又因為本實施例僅針對背光進行調變,所以僅 擷取YUV色彩模型中之亮度因子作為第—亮度因子。而 RGB色彩模型轉換為YUV色彩模型之方式可使用例如下 列的轉換方程式: Y = raax(R, G, B); Y=1/3*(R+G+B);或 Y= 0· 299xR+ 0. 587xG+ 0. 1 ΐ4χΒ ; 其中R、G、B係為在RGB色彩模型之圖像資訊,但 並不限於上述之轉換方程式。以下敘述係以γ=〇 299χ R + 0. 587xG+ 0. 114χΒ之方程式為例。 16 200931389 請參考圖4,係為本發明之三個不同圖像之圖像資 訊分析統計圖,其為分析三個不同圖像之分析統計二 訊’若將晝素百分比值設為25%,並且由高灰階值向二 •灰階值累加每一灰階值之畫素數量,直到晝素數量之和 -大於總晝素數量的25%時,可分別由三個分析統計 中齡出APL·、Apt、咖三個灰階值作為平均圖像 位值,且APL·、APL、APL係分別介於〇及255之間。 請同時參考圖5a、圖5b及圖5c,係分別. & *明亮度,子之重置模型一、重置模型二及重置模型 二,其中當平均圖像準位值較低(如圖4中之APLl),、 就是說圖像_倾為偏暗之狀g,财㈣應的重 曲線之轉折點在於γ=α,且亮度因子重置模型中亮 分之轉換區間會較大,且f光亮度會調降較多:: 值適中(如圖4中之APL〇,也就是說圖;經 判讀後為壳、暗均勻之狀態,則其重置曲線的 於:=β,且亮度因子重置模型中亮態部分之轉換區間會 坐落於接近一半處,此時背光亮度調降約為—半. 當平均圖像準位值較高(如圖4中之APL3),也就是^或 .像經判讀後為偏亮之狀態,則其重置曲線的轉折圖 • Υ=γ,且亮度因子重置模型中亮態部分之轉換區間= 窄,此時背光亮度調降程度較少;其中β係介於e 之間。 γ 亦即步驟^S320之較佳實施方式(不以此為 限),係為當第一壳度因子大於重置曲線的轉折署日一 則第一亮度因子經重置曲線重置後,而形成的第點日^产 17 200931389 因子即大於第-亮度因子;又若當第—亮度因子小於重 置曲線的轉折點時,則第一亮度因子經重置曲線重置 後而开)成的第二売度因子即小於或等於第一亮度因 子^而當第一亮度因子等於重置曲線的轉折點時,則第 一売度因子則等於第一亮度因子。 在步驟S330中,第-亮度因子係根據亮度因子重置 模型重置為第二亮度因子。 而在步驟S340中,取得比例因子(Scale)之方法係 將第二亮度因子(Y,)除以第一亮度因子⑺而得知,也 可以寫成BackDim=(APL/510)+0.5, so after obtaining the average image level value, the average image level value (APL) can be substituted into the backlight modulation equation to obtain the backlight modulation rate. Since the average image level value is linear with the backlight modulation rate, the brightness change of the image can be more adaptively modulated during the backlight adjustment of 200931389', so that the image is static. In the process of dynamic display, there will be flickering, and depending on the image, the backlight modulation will have different modulation results. Referring to FIG. 1 again, wherein step S300 includes: step S310: obtaining a first brightness factor; step S320: establishing a brightness factor reset model; step S330: resetting the first brightness factor according to the brightness factor reset model to a second brightness factor; step S340: obtaining a scale factor; and step S350: obtaining an image output value. The method of step S310 is performed by converting the image data from a _ color model to a -YUV color model and then taking the luminance factor in the m color model. Since Y is the luminance factor, u, and color factor in the YUV color model, and since the present embodiment only modulates the backlight, only the luminance factor in the YUV color model is taken as the first luminance factor. The conversion of the RGB color model to the YUV color model can use, for example, the following conversion equation: Y = raax(R, G, B); Y=1/3*(R+G+B); or Y= 0· 299xR+ 0. 587xG+ 0. 1 ΐ4χΒ; where R, G, and B are image information in the RGB color model, but are not limited to the above conversion equation. The following description takes the equation of γ = χ 299 χ R + 0. 587xG + 0.114 为 as an example. 16 200931389 Please refer to FIG. 4 , which is an image information analysis statistical graph of three different images of the present invention, which is an analysis and analysis of three different images. If the percentage value of the morpheme is set to 25%, And accumulating the number of pixels of each grayscale value from the high grayscale value to the second grayscale value until the sum of the number of halogens - greater than 25% of the total number of halogens, respectively, can be calculated by three analytical statistics The three grayscale values of APL·, Apt, and coffee are used as average image bit values, and APL·, APL, and APL are between 〇 and 255, respectively. Please refer to FIG. 5a, FIG. 5b and FIG. 5c at the same time, respectively, & *brightness, sub-reset model 1, reset model 2 and reset model 2, wherein when the average image level is lower (such as In Fig. 4, APLl), that is, the image _ is tilted to the shape of g, the turning point of the heavy curve of the financial (four) is γ = α, and the conversion interval of the bright points in the brightness factor reset model will be larger. And f light brightness will be reduced more:: The value is moderate (such as APL in Figure 4, that is to say; after the interpretation of the shell, dark uniform state, then its reset curve is: = β, and The conversion interval of the bright part of the brightness factor reset model will be located close to half, and the backlight brightness is reduced by about half-time. When the average image level is higher (as in APL3 in Figure 4), ^ or. If the state is bright after being interpreted, the transition curve of the reset curve is • = γ, and the conversion interval of the bright part in the brightness factor reset model is narrow, and the brightness of the backlight is reduced. Less; wherein the β system is between e. γ is the preferred embodiment of step ^S320 (not limited thereto), and is the first shell factor On the turning curve of the reset curve, the first brightness factor is reset by the reset curve, and the first point of the day 17 is generated, the 200931389 factor is greater than the first-lightness factor; and if the first-lightness factor is smaller than the reset curve At the turning point, the second brightness factor after the first brightness factor is reset by the reset curve is less than or equal to the first brightness factor ^, and when the first brightness factor is equal to the turning point of the reset curve, then The first intensity factor is then equal to the first brightness factor. In step S330, the first-thinness factor is reset to the second brightness factor according to the brightness factor reset model. In step S340, the method of obtaining the scale factor is obtained by dividing the second brightness factor (Y,) by the first brightness factor (7), and can also be written as
