VIDEO FRAME RATE CONVERSION METHOD SUPPORTING REPLACEMENT OF MOTION-COMPENSATED FRAME INTERPOLATION WITH LINEAR COMBINATION OF FRAMES AND DEVICE IMPLEMENTING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18140932 titled 'VIDEO FRAME RATE CONVERSION METHOD SUPPORTING REPLACEMENT OF MOTION-COMPENSATED FRAME INTERPOLATION WITH LINEAR COMBINATION OF FRAMES AND DEVICE IMPLEMENTING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method for converting the frame rate of a video.
- Frames of the video are obtained and divided into blocks.
- Motion is estimated for each block to determine the forward and backward motion fields.
- Occlusions in the video are identified using the motion fields.
- An artifact probability metric is calculated to indicate the likelihood of artifacts appearing in the interpolated frames between the original frames.
Original Abstract Submitted
A video frame rate conversion (FRC) method, including obtaining at least one pair of frames of a video; partitioning each frame into a plurality of blocks; estimating motion a block-by-block basis to obtain: a forward motion field including a set of first motion vectors, and a backward motion field including a set of second motion vectors; obtaining occlusions based on the forward motion field and the backward motion field; and calculating an artifact probability metric indicating a probability of an appearance of an artifact in the motion-compensated frame interpolation between the first frame and the second frame.
