METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DISPLAY CORRECTION

Aspects of the present invention are related to systems and methods for compressing display non-uniformity correction data and for using compressed display non-uniformity correction data. A correction image may be compressed by fitting a data model to the correction image data and encoding the model parameter values. A correction image may be decomposed into two images: an image containing the vertically and horizontally aligned structures of the correction image and a smoothly varying image. The smoothly varying image may be compressed by fitting a data model to the smoothly varying image data. Multiple correction images may be compressed by determining eigenvectors which describe the distribution of the multiple correction images. Projection coefficients may be determined by projecting each correction image the determined eigenvectors, and an eigen-image associated with an eigenvector may be compressed. Correction data for a display may be reconstructed from parameter values stored on a display system. A plurality of correction images may be reconstructed from encoded eigen-images stored on a display system.
