Methods and apparatus for filtering images using fuzzy logic

摘要

A device for filtering video images, of the type which includes first and second circuit portions, each having first and second input terminals respectively adapted to receive digitalized luminance and chrominance components of a television signal, and an output terminal coinciding with an output terminal of the device. The first and second circuit portions further include first, second and third filters, cascade coupled to one another, and a fourth filter, respectively. The first, second and third filters incorporate a computational circuit which uses a logic of the fuzzy type to process the digitalized luminance component. The fourth filter includes a computational circuit which processes the digitalized chrominance components based upon a parameter supplied from the second filter.
