IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD

Abstract: an image processing apparatus and method are provided. an image processing device is configured to execute the following operations. the apparatus marks a first periodic block in a down-sized current frame with a first label. the apparatus performs a first motion estimation on the down-sized current frame and a down-sized reference frame based on the first label to generate first motion vectors. the apparatus marks an n-th periodic block having another periodic feature in a current frame with an n-th label. the apparatus performs an n-th motion estimation on the current frame and a reference frame based on the n-th label to generate n-th motion vectors. the apparatus performs a motion compensation on the current frame and the reference frame based on the n-th motion vectors to generate a compensated frame.
