IMAGE INTERPOLATION WITH HALO REDUCTION

摘要

An image interpolator is presented that utilizes a block-based motion estimator to provide block-based motion vectors and a motion vector select coupled to the block-based motion estimator to provide pixel based motion vectors. A first image interpolator provides a first interpolated image from the selected motion vectors. A second image interpolator corrects the selected motion vectors, including a correction for halo reduction. Post processing can be utilized to further reduce the halo effect.
