Summary: | In this paper, we propose a video resampling method for simultaneous deinterlacing and image upscaling. The proposed method is composed of two steps: the initial image magnification step and the edge enhancement step. In order to convert an interlaced image into a display format image, a filtering strategy, which resizes images with arbitrary ratios and reduces the overall computational load, is performed region adaptively using local characteristics such as motion or motionless regions. After the initial step, the proposed jagged edge correction (JEC) method is applied to the initially upscaled images to correct the stair-like artifacts (jagged edges) which are caused by ignoring any edge information in diagonal edge regions during the linear filtering process. Moreover, this method can be very useful for various upscaling applications to improve edge quality since it can be used in combination with other common interpolation techniques, such as cubic spline techniques. Experimental results show that the proposed method substantially reduces the jagged edges of the converted images and provides steep and natural-looking edge transitions.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT] |
