Abstract:
An image processing method and apparatus, a control method are provided. A part of the color-block image within the fixed region is converted into a first image using a first interpolation algorithm. The first image includes first simulation pixels arranged in an array. A part of the color-block image beyond the fixed region is converted into a second image using a second interpolation algorithm. The second image includes second simulation pixels arranged in an array, and a complexity of the second interpolation algorithm is less than that of the first interpolation algorithm. The first image and the second image are merged into a simulation image corresponding to the color-block image. With the image processing method, by processing different parts of the image respectively with the first interpolation algorithm and the second, the time for processing the image is reduced while the image quality is improved, thus improving the user satisfaction.

Claim (Index 9):
An image processing apparatus, configured to convert a color-block image into a simulation image, wherein the color-block image comprises image pixel units arranged in a preset array, each image pixel unit comprises a plurality of original pixels, the simulation image comprises a plurality of simulation pixels arranged in an array, the plurality of simulation pixels comprise a current pixel, the plurality of original pixels comprise an association pixel corresponding to the current pixel, a position of the association pixel in the clock-block image corresponds to that of the current pixel in the simulation image, the color-block image comprises a fixed region; and the image processing apparatus comprises a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions stored thereon, and an instruction execution system which is configured by the instructions to implement:\n a first determining module, configured to determine whether the association pixel is within the fixed region; a second determining module, configured to determine whether a color of the current pixel is identical to that of the association pixel when the association pixel is within the fixed region; a first calculating module, configured to determine a pixel value of the association pixel as a pixel value of the current pixel when the color of the current pixel is identical to that of the association pixel; a second calculating module, configured to determine the pixel value of the current pixel according to pixel values corresponding to an association pixel unit through a first interpolation algorithm when the color of the current pixel is different from that of the association pixel, wherein the image pixel units comprise the association pixel unit, a color of the association pixel unit is identical to that of the current pixel and the association pixel unit is adjacent to the association pixel; and a third calculating module, configured to determine the pixel value of the current pixel using a second interpolation algorithm when the association pixel is not located within the fixed region, wherein a complexity of the second interpolation algorithm is less than that of the first interpolation algorithm.
