    Abstract: A method and apparatus of image data compression and decompression are disclosed. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the compression method partitions the image data into access units and encodes each access unit into a bitstream according to a target bit budget. Each access unit is encoded using first data compression to generate a first bitstream and the residual data is further encoded using second data compression to generate a second bitstream if the first bitstream is smaller than the target bit budget. In one example, the second data compression comprises bit plane coding applied to bit plane-ordered data, wherein the bit plane-ordered data is generated by scanning from a most significant bit to a least significant bit of the residual data in a bit plane-wise order. The decompression method comprises steps to recover reconstructed data from the first and second bitstreams.

    Abstract: A HDR tone mapping system includes several modules. A semantic segmentation module is used to extract semantic information from the input image. An image decomposition module is used to decompose the input image to a high-bit base layer and a detail layer. A statistics module is used to generate statistics of pixels of the input image according to the semantic information. A curve computation module is used to generate a tone curve from the statistics. A compression module is used to compress the high-bit base layer to a low-bit base layer according to the tone curve, the statistics and the semantic information. A detail adjustment module is used to tune the detail layer according to the semantic information and the statistics to generate an adjusted detail layer. An image reconstruction module is used to combine the adjusted detail layer and the low-bit base layer to generate an output image.

    Abstract: An image signal amplifying circuit comprising an amplifier and a gain control circuit. The amplifier respectively amplifies a first image signal and a second image signal, which are generated by a pixel array of an image sensor, by a first analog gain and a second analog gain, wherein each one of pixel circuits of the pixel array comprises a first capacitor for generating the first image signal and a second capacitor for generating the second image signal, wherein a charge storage capacity of the first capacitor is smaller than a charge storage capacity of the second capacitor. The gain control circuit selectively adjusts the first analog gain or the second analog gain. Each one of the pixel circuits has a first conversion gain corresponding to the first capacitor and a second conversion gain corresponding to the second capacitor.

    Abstract: Various schemes pertaining to generating a full-frame color image using a hybrid sensor are described. An apparatus receives sensor data from the hybrid sensor, wherein the sensor data includes partial-frame chromatic data of a plurality of chromatic channels and partial-frame color-insensitive data. The apparatus subsequently generates full-frame color-insensitive data based on the partial-frame color-insensitive data. The apparatus subsequently generates the full-frame color image based on the full-frame color-insensitive data and the partial-frame chromatic data. The apparatus provides benefits of enhancing image quality of the full-frame color image especially under low light conditions.
