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.
