Detailed Description

More sophisticated learning-based automatic white balance algorithm.

As GrayworldWB, this algorithm works by applying different gains to the input image channels, but their computation is a bit more involved compared to the simple gray-world assumption. More details about the algorithm can be found in [Cheng2015] .

To mask out saturated pixels this function uses only pixels that satisfy the following condition:

\[ \frac{\textrm{max}(R,G,B)}{\texttt{range_max_val}} < \texttt{saturation_thresh} \]

Currently supports images of type CV_8UC3 and CV_16UC3.

Member Function Documentation

extractSimpleFeatures()

virtual void cv::xphoto::LearningBasedWB::extractSimpleFeatures ( InputArray  src, OutputArray  dst  )

pure virtual

Implements the feature extraction part of the algorithm.

In accordance with [Cheng2015] , computes the following features for the input image:

1. Chromaticity of an average (R,G,B) tuple
2. Chromaticity of the brightest (R,G,B) tuple (while ignoring saturated pixels)
3. Chromaticity of the dominant (R,G,B) tuple (the one that has the highest value in the RGB histogram)
4. Mode of the chromaticity palette, that is constructed by taking 300 most common colors according to the RGB histogram and projecting them on the chromaticity plane. Mode is the most high-density point of the palette, which is computed by a straightforward fixed-bandwidth kernel density estimator with a Epanechnikov kernel function.

Parameters

src	Input three-channel image (BGR color space is assumed).
dst	An array of four (r,g) chromaticity tuples corresponding to the features listed above.
