In this paper, we propose a new video frame interpolation technique by a locally-adaptive robust principal component analysis (RPCA) with weight priors. The proposed algorithm relies on two main steps: 1. the pre-processing step initializes the new frame by a simplified motion-compensated frame interpolation and assigns each pixel a confident weight based on both the difference of motion estimation and local consistency; and 2. the refinement step updates the frame by a proposed weighted robust principal component analysis (WRPCA) algorithm. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art algorithms, both in visual quality and PSNR performance.
