I am extracting the sharpness features of image as shown in the following image mentioned in a paper.

sharpness

I have done with the following code. Firstly, use the open cv convert the RGB to HSL (luminance is L mentioned in the paper), then get L array. and then used the Laplacian operator to get the LP. Finally, obtain the sharpness value of image based on mathematical form in the paper.

     img_HLS = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2HLS)
     L = img_HLS[:, :, 1]
     u = np.mean(L)
    LP = cv2.Laplacian(L, cv2.CV_16S, ksize = 3)  
    s = np.sum(gray_lap/u)

I don't know my solution is right or wrong, if there is problem, please help me correct it. Thank!

hmm, local vs global mean value ..

@berak could you tell me your comment in detail. what's local vs global mean value ?

you are using the single, global mean value frm the image, while the paper mentions "local" mean, which probably means: sample a x-neighbourhood around pixel at xy, and take the mean from there

thanks for your comments, how to compute it with python.

For sharpness: LP = cv2.Laplacian(L, cv2.CV_64F).var()

@supra56, the "local mean" is the problem, now ;)

(and var() is the global variance, not the local mean)
