Abstract

In this paper, we propose a motion-adaptive de-interlacing method using motion compensated interpolation. In a conventional motion compensated method, a simple pre-filter such as line averaging is applied to interpolate missing lines before the motion estimation. However, this method causes interpolation error because of inaccurate motion estimation and compensation. In the proposed method, EBMF(Edge Based Median Filter) as a pre-filter is applied, and new matching method, which uses two same-parity fields and opposite-parity field as references, is proposed. For further improvement, motion correction filter is proposed to reduce the interpolation error caused by incorrect motion. Simulation results show that the proposed method provides better performance than existing methods.

본 논문에서는 움직임 보상을 이용한 움직임 기반의 적응형 디인터레이싱 알고리즘을 제안한다. 정확한 움직임 추정을 위해 전처리로서 EBMF(Edge Based Median Filter)를 사용하며 2 개의 같은 위상을 갖는 필드와 1 개의 다른 위상을 갖는 필드를 이용한 새로운 BMA(Block Matching Algorithm) 움직임 보상 방법을 제안한다. 시간축 필터로서 움직임 정보 손실 오류를 제거하기 위해 입력 영상의 움직임 영역에 따라 각각 다른 임계 값을 적용하는 AMPDF(Adaptive Minimum Pixel Difference Filter)를 적용하였으며 MMD(Maximum Motion Detection)와 SAD(Sum of Difference)를 이용하여 빠른 움직임 영역에서의 화질을 향상시켰다. 최종적으로 잘못된 움직임 보상에 기인하는 화질의 열화를 방지하기 위한 후처리로서 움직임 보정 필터를 제안한다. 모의 실험을 통해 제안하는 방법이 기존의 방법에 비해 우수한 성능을 갖는 것을 확인하였다.
