To overcome this problem, we propose an improved, two-step automatic cast-detection method. First, we compute the RGB color variance to evaluate the quality of the input image. If this variance is very small, we extract near-neutral color areas and compute the local ab-chromaticity histogram. We use this local ab-chromaticity histogram to evaluate the quality of the input image. This method has been tested in ZTE＇ s video surveil- lance system. The results show that the proposed method pro- duces better results based on subjective evaluation and is more efficient in various conditions.展开更多
