Abstract

See full text

A method for evaluating the quality of an image, for extracting a luminance gradient displayed on a display device and for evaluating local luminance unevenness caused therein. The method includes the steps of: subdividing the image to be used as an evaluation object into a plurality of pixels; acquiring a first luminance information by calculating the difference between the sum of luminance values of predetermined pixels and the luminance value of a predetermined pixel, the predetermined pixels forming a first pixel group surrounding the predetermined pixel; acquiring a second luminance information by calculating the difference between the sum of luminance values of predetermined pixels and the luminance value of the predetermined pixel, the predetermined pixels constituting a second pixel group; acquiring a third luminance information by adding the first luminance information and the second luminance information; and evaluating the luminance of a screen photographed based on the third luminance information.
