Backlight dimming algorithm based on histogram and dominant gray level
To solve the contradiction between energy consumption and display quality in the LCD display effectively
on the basis of a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between image backlight and features such as gray histogram or dominant gray level
this paper proposes the dimming algorithm with these characteristics. First of all
a classification into three classes based on the average gray is performed for the input image. Then image characteristic values are computed such as gray histogram and dominant gray level. Finally the backlight dimming brightness is calculated according to formula
whose coefficients are determined by the multiple regression analysis to analyze the relationship between image features and backlight. For 30 typical images
the simulation result show that the dimming effect index is 0.95
the average energy saving rate is 28.22%. Compared with other dimming algorithms
this algorithm has higher power-saving rate and better display effect
moreover
it trades off the contradiction of the display effect and energy saving rate.
