Intelligent intra-field interpolation for motion compensated deinterlacing

This paper proposes a novel intelligent intra-field interpolation for motion compensated deinterlacing. This method combines the advantage of cubic curve fitting interpolation and fuzzy edge interpolation to overcome resolution degradation caused by incorrect motion vector. The intelligent intra-field interpolation scheme alleviates resolution degradation in areas where object motion cannot be well tracked by motion estimation and produces deinterlaced pictures with better visual quality, less flicker, and imperceptible artifacts. Experimental results show that the developed method can indeed generate high quality intra-interpolation picture for motion areas.
