IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE SUPER-RESOLUTION CIRCUIT AND FOLLOW-UP RESIZE CIRCUIT FOR IMAGE RESIZING

摘要

An image processing apparatus includes a super-resolution (SR) circuit and a resizer circuit. The SR circuit performs an SR operation upon a first image to generate a second image, wherein a resolution of the second image is not lower than a resolution of the first image, and the SR operation is based, at least in part, on one or more artificial intelligence (AI) models. The resizer circuit performs a resize operation upon the second image to generate a third image, wherein a resolution of the third image is not lower than the resolution of the second image, and no AI model is involved in the resize operation.
