18、t is ISO/TC 42, Photography.iv ISO 2016 All rights reserved PD ISO/TS 19567-1:2016 ISO/TS 19567-1:2016(E) Introduction Texture generally means the visual and tactile surface quality derived from the physicality of the material and the roughness or graininess of the surface. For digital still cameras

19、, texture is of course the visual surface quality and the characteristic of texture reproduction in the captured image is interpreted into the reproduction of the low contrast fine details. This Technical Specification specifies the measurement of how cameras reproduce texture defined as low contras

20、t fine details. The tendency to utilize small sensors with high pixel counts in some cameras leaves a very small amount of light reaching the individual pixel. With the signal getting smaller and the noise level remaining at a certain level, it is necessary to reduce the noise in the image processin

21、g after capturing the image. Although the algorithms used for noise reduction have been developed over time, they are still not able to differentiate texture in the actual scene from the unwanted noise introduced by the capturing system. This decreases the image quality and it is therefore helpful t

22、o have a method to measure the loss of texture. Texture can also be enhanced to increase the acutance of the image. The texture reproduction is dependent on frequency and contrast because the noise reduction and the acutance enhancement, etc. are nonlinearly dependent on the pixel value and the diff

23、erence among the surrounding pixels. This part of ISO 19567 specifies methods to measure texture reproduction using test charts with cyclic patterns. The test charts are based on the established measurement methods, multiburst (IEC 61146- 1) and siemens star (ISO 12233). This part of ISO 19567 newly

24、 defines the density of the test charts and exposure setting of measured cameras. The measurement results are presented in the spatial frequency response (SFR) curves. If one SFR is larger than the other in all frequency range, larger amount of texture is reproduced in the corresponding image. If tw

25、o SFRs have a cross point and the larger SFR depends on the frequency range, the superior image in the subjective evaluation is dependent on the dominant frequency of the image. Comparison of the measurement result provides important information in the texture comparison of the captured images. Text

26、ure in a real scene consists mostly of non-structured or random patterns as shown in Annex A. Although it has been confirmed by experiments (Annex C and Annex D) that the texture reproduction characteristics of most cameras are well represented by the measurements in this Technical Specification, so

27、me cameras are found to indicate different characteristics for structured patterns compared to those for non-structured patterns. Measurement methods using non-structured or random patterns are under study and are expected to be included in consequent parts to this Technical Specification. ISO 2016

Any illuminance level of the test chart may be applied for the texture reproduction measurement; however, the illuminance level in the range from 1 000 lx to 2 000 lx (in the case of transmissive chart, from 57,3 cd/m2 to 11

39、5 cd/m2 for 18 % gray) is recommended when the measurement has no specified purpose (e.g. low light performance). Non-uniformity of illumination on the chart shall be less than 10 %. The light source(s) should be positioned to provide uniform illumination and produce no glare or specular reflections

40、 from the target. A flickering light source is not recommended as it may cause banding artefacts to occur in the captured image. In the case of using a flickering light source, although it is not recommended, the exposure time shall not be shorter than one period of the flickering to minimize the ba

(input luminance f

The deviation of the exposure should be between +5 % and 10 % of the aforementioned target exposure. For example, the mean output luminance Y value for the 18 % gray should be 118 (8-bit)

43、 +2, 6 when the output colour space of the camera is sRGB 8-bit (IEC 61966-2-1 and IEC 61966-2-1/Amd 1). The exposure shall be in the range of the aforementioned deviation when the measurement results of multiple cameras are compared (Annex B explains the basic concept for this stipulation). The exp

44、osure may be adjusted by the exposure bias setting of the camera or by adding a white or black card to the test chart. White balance should be adjusted to render the centre of the image, as neutral as possible. The focusing shall be in the best practically attainable focus. For a camera with user se

45、lectable compression ratio (e.g. JPEG), the compression ratio should be minimum to minimize the artefacts of compression.

Other settings, such as “sharpness”, “noise reduction”, shall be in the default mode (factory shipping condition) if those settings are not reported. 5 Texture reproduction measurement

47、 procedure 5.1 General Texture reproduction is measured by the amplitude of a sine waveform in this part of ISO 19567. The frequency characteristics of the texture reproduction are measured for various frequencies in the sine chart to be captured. Two measurement methods, the multiburst and siemens

48、star, are defined in this part of ISO 19567. The multiburst chart consists of several low contrast sine waves of discrete frequency (see Figure 3). Each sine wave consists of multiple cyclic patterns along a single direction in the multiburst chart. The siemens star chart consists of a low contrast

49、sine wave-modulated star burst pattern (see Figure 4), which includes continuous frequency variation in all directions. Based on the structure of each chart, the multiburst and the siemens star can be used in the cases shown in Table 1.
