Method and device for generating candidate vectors for image interpolation systems using motion estimation and compensation

摘要

The method involves selecting movement vectors, and determining an updating vector based on confidence value of respective movement vector, for each selected vector. Applicant movement vectors are generated from the selected and updating vector. One movement vector is selected from the applicant movement vectors. Information associating the selected vector is stored in current pixel blocks. The movement vectors are associated to pixel blocks of already processed image or already associated to pixel blocks of an image during processing. Independent claims are also included for the following: (A) a device for estimating pixel block movement for processing images; (B) a computer program product.
