It is an object to provide an image processing device, an image display device, and an image processing method therefor that are capable of curbing generation of a pseudo edge in a digital image.The image processing device and the image display device are provided including a threshold-value control unit 29 that obtains a threshold value depending on a tone in image data; a smoothing filter unit 60 that applies a smoothing process to a predetermined tone in the image data while preserving, depending on the threshold value, a predetermined edge in the image data; and an output unit that outputs image data having been processed by the smoothing filter unit 60.

An image processing apparatus receives n-bit image data, carries out an α-bit bit extension, and outputs (n+α)-bit image data, where n and α are positive integers. The apparatus also performs an epsilon filtering operation that uses the additional gray levels provided by the bit extension to smooth out false edges caused by the bit extension without smoothing out real edges. The output image preserves both the smoothness of regions of gradual change and the sharpness of abrupt changes in the input image.

A method and apparatus for processing images, and an image display apparatus are provided that can produce favorable images even when digitized image are partially magnified (enlarged) or reduced (shrunk). The apparatus for expanding or reducing input image data supplied thereto, for each area of the image data, comprises a high frequency (HF) component smoothing processor that generates smoothed-HF-component image data by smoothing HF components of the input image data; a partial magnification/reduction controller that generates partial magnification/reduction control information that designates positions of pixels in image data obtained after expanding or reducing the input image data for each image area; and a pixel data generator that generates pixel data of pixel positions designated by the partial magnification/reduction control information in the smoothed-HF-component image data, by using pixel data in a neighborhood of the designated pixel positions.

An image processing apparatus determines (3H) a reference pixel position for each pixel by an interpolation calculation using the distortion correction values for representative pixels stored in a correction value storage unit (2H), decides (4H) whether the distortion correction values used in the interpolation satisfy a predetermined condition, reads (5H) a plurality of pixel values from an image data storage unit (1) according to values of their reference pixel position, determines (6H) first interpolation coefficients (C6) from a value of its reference pixel position, and determines the pixel value D7 in the output image from the plurality of pixel values read and the first interpolation coefficients (C6). The image processing apparatus determines (6HA) second interpolation coefficients (C6A) from said value of its reference pixel position and a predetermined function, and selects (6HB), according to the decision result, either the second interpolation coefficients (C6A) or third interpolation coefficients (C6B) for use as the first interpolation coefficients (C6).

To interpolate a frame between the current frame and a first delayed frame preceding the current frame, an image processing device generates test interpolation data for the first delayed frame from data in point-symmetric positions in the current frame and in a second delayed frame preceding the first delayed frame. Motion vectors pointing from the first delayed frame to the current frame are found by evaluating different test interpolation data against the actual data of the first delayed frame. These motion vectors are converted to pairs of motion vectors pointing from the first delayed frame and the current frame to the interpolated frame, and these pairs of motion vectors are used to generate accurate data for the interpolated frame from the data of the first delayed frame and the current frame.

An image processing apparatus 100 includes a parallax calculating unit 1. The parallax calculating unit 1 receives input of a pair of image input data Da1 and Db1 forming a three-dimensional video, calculates parallax amounts of respective regions obtained by dividing the pair of image input data Da1 and Db1 into a plurality of regions, and outputs the parallax amounts as parallax data T1 of the respective regions. The parallax calculating unit 1 includes a correlation calculating unit 10, a high-correlation-region extracting unit 11, a denseness detecting unit 12, and a parallax selecting unit 13. The correlation calculating unit 10 outputs correlation data T10 and pre-selection parallax data T13 of the respective regions. The high-correlation-region extracting unit 11 determines a level of correlation among the correlation data T10 of the regions and outputs high-correlation region data T11. The denseness detecting unit 12 determines, based on the high-correlation region data T11, a level of denseness and outputs dense region data T12. The parallax selecting unit 13 outputs, based on the dense region data T12, the parallax data T1 obtained by correcting the pre-selection parallax data T13.

An image processor is provided with the high-frequency component detecting unit that calculates a convolution for each of regions of interest in part of an image region of input image data, to output the high-frequency component detection result for each pixel of interest; the smoothing unit that smoothes the image data, to output the smoothed image data; and the image data processing unit that combines based on the high-frequency component detection result the image data with the smoothed image data, to output the combined image data; wherein the image data processing unit varies the combination rate for the smoothed image data, based on the high-frequency component detection result. Thereby, even when a region in the image data contains such high frequency components as a checkered pattern has, an image resistant to moiré that would be generated in magnifying or reducing of the image on a region basis can be displayed without deterioration of image quality.
