Yu‐Lin Chang, Ching-Yeh Chen, Shyh-Feng Lin, Liang‐Gee Chen · 2006
A four field variable block size motion compensated adaptive de-interlacing method is proposed to improve the accuracy of the motion vectors and lower the occlusions of motion compensated de-interlacing. The proposed de-interlacing method consists of variable block size motion estimation/compensation with four field SAD, interlaced block mode decision, and new block modes. The variable block size motion estimation and compensation improve the accuracy of the motion vectors, especially for spatially-periodic patterns. The new block modes and the interlaced block mode decision make block decisions more precisely, and special patterns that motion compensation cannot be compensated are correctly de-interlaced by these two methods. The subjective view shows an improvement of the accuracy of the motion vectors and the correctness of the mode decision.
