DE-INTERLACING OF VIDEO DATA

A new de-interlacing algorithm is proposed, suitable for high-quality flicker-free display of television images, for matrix type of displays , and as a basis for scan-rate conversions. The algorithm applies moti on estimation and compensation techniques to achieve a high performanc e for moving and stationary image parts. This paper provides details o f the new algorithm and an evaluation showing the relative performance of the proposal and a set of recently proposed and/or commercially av ailable methods.
