Abstract

An image processing apparatus using frame-rate conversion and a method therefor are provided to remove a motion vector discrimination error by inter-field interval difference and perform the frame-rate conversion. The first and second image block extracting units(210,220) extract blocks with a certain size from an inputted field-unit interface image. A motion vector extracting unit(240) compares the blocks extracted from successively inputted two images, and calculates a motion vector. A motion filter(260) discriminates whether motion exists using a motion vector value of pixels within a certain range. If the motion exists, the motion filter(260) passes the motion vector value. If the motion does not exist, the motion filter(260) compulsorily changes the motion vector to '0' and outputs the '0'. An FRC(Frame Rate Converter)(280) performs the frame rate conversion of the motion vector values outputted from the motion filter(260), and outputs an image.

Embodiment
Fig. 2 is the block diagram according to the image processing apparatus of first embodiment of the invention.This device comprises 1 delay cell 200, the first image block extraction unit 210, the second image block extraction unit 220, absolute difference sum mapper (SAD map) 230, motion vector extraction unit 240, memory cell 250, motion filter 260, motion vector compensation unit 270 and frame-rate conversion (FRC) unit 280.
1 (field) delay cell 200 will be input to one of the picture delay of this unit, compare to allow current input image and previous input picture.
The first image block extraction unit 210 extracts one from current input image.This piece is of a size of C * C/2 pixel, C=2 herein n, and n=0,1 ....As mentioned above, be equivalent to half of the frame result that handles through deinterleave through the field pixel quantity in vertical direction that deinterleave is handled.
The second image block extraction unit 220 extracts one from previous input picture.The shape of this piece is identical with the piece that extracts from current input image with the position.
SAD mapper 230 is the piece in the first image block extraction units 210 and the second image block extraction unit 220 relatively, obtaining the pixel difference of two interblocks, and stores this pixel difference value.
Motion vector extraction unit 240 utilizes the value of SAD mapper 230 to determine the motion vector of each pixel of described of current input image.
The motion vector value that memory cell 250 storages are extracted from motion vector extraction unit 240.
Motion filter 260 is picked out incorrect definite motion vector value according to the absolute value of motion vector from memory cell 250.In other words, motion filter 260 checks whether the motion vector of estimating (this motion vector is the staggered image of handling) has produced line (line) skew based on pixel difference between odd field and even field from input picture, if determine that this motion vector is the motion vector of a mistake.
The value of the erroneous motion that motion vector compensation unit 270 will be received from motion filter 260 is changed into " 0 ", and it is constant to keep correct motion vector.
The motion vector that 280 pairs of FRC unit receive from motion vector compensation unit 270 is carried out frame-rate conversion.
The method of operation of device shown in Figure 2 now will be described.
One of (the staggered processing) picture delay that 1 delay cell 200 will be imported makes the piece that extracts from postpone one previous input picture to compare with the piece of current input image, and wherein this rectangular block of pixels is the form of C * C/2, for example C=32.
The piece that SAD mapper 230 will extract from postpone one previous input picture compares with the respective pixel of the piece that extracts from current input image, and obtains the pixel difference between them.
Utilize this pixel difference, motion vector extraction unit 240 determines that (vx vy), and stores this motion vector in the memory cell 250 into for the motion vector MV of each pixel of input pictures.
Distance between the continuous input picture that causes by " motion " that obtains by input picture, motion filter 260 is corrected the erroneous motion that receives from memory cell 250, this continuous input picture is even number and odd field image (input sequence can be put upside down).
Motion filter 260 is provided with one and is the shielding (piece) of A * B form, for example, and A=B=3.Motion filter 260 calculates the motion vector absolute value of the pixel of conductively-closed covering then, and determines whether the motion vector absolute value quantity that is equal to or less than intended pixel difference is equal to or greater than predetermined quantity.This intended pixel difference also is the distance between even number and the odd field image, can be 1, and in this case, predetermined quantity preferably equals the pixel quantity (that is, owing to A=B=3, so predetermined quantity is 9) that the conductively-closed piece is covered.
When the quantity that is equal to or less than " 1 " in the motion vector absolute value of the pixel that the conductively-closed piece is covered equaled 9, motion vector compensation unit 270 was converted to " 0 " with the absolute value of motion vector, and null vector illustrates that corresponding piece does not have " motion ".If the quantity that is equal to or less than " 1 " in the motion vector absolute value of the pixel that the conductively-closed piece is covered was less than 9 o'clock, motion vector compensation unit 270 determines that there be " motion " in corresponding piece, and this motion vector of the output that remains unchanged.
The big I of shielding slab is defined arbitrarily by the user.
The absolute value that obtains motion vector be because, only need the range of movement information of piece, do not consider the direction of motion.The absolute value of determining the motion vector coordinate whether less than a predetermined threshold value coordinate figure (th1, th2), if count value increases.Preferred mode is that (th1 th2) is (2,2) to the predetermined threshold value coordinate.On each pixel of this shielding slab, all carry out the comparison of the motion vector absolute value and the predetermined threshold value coordinate of C * C/2 piece.
Motion filter is guaranteed rest image inerrancy campaign.Owing to have the deviation of 1 pixel between even number and the odd field image, therefore (static) of width of cloth input even interlaced image does not have motion, its ordinate value still is vy=1.Between even number and odd field image, the field of interpolation can select " 0 " or " 1 " as its vy value, makes and can see that the straight line of 1 pixel departs from the rest image of output.
When image was exported, for rest image, motion vector compensation unit 270 made the vy value be always " 0 ", thereby has prevented that image from departing from.
Fig. 3 is the flow chart of motion filter method according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
Suppose continuously in the C * C/2 predetermined block of the two field picture of input, the estimating motion vector of pixel be expressed as coordinate MV (vx, vy).
Motion vector is stored in memory cell, and passive movement filters one by one.
Motion is filtered and is started, and an A * B shielding slab is set in step 300 detects whether motion vector estimated and storage is a real motion vector.
In step 310, calculate (i, j) the motion vector absolute value MV (vx of location of pixels in A * B shielding slab i, vy i).It can be expressed as equation (1).
x i=abs(vx i),
y i=abs(vy i) (1)
Do not consider the direction of motion of image by the range of movement that only obtains image, the calculating of motion vector absolute value has been reduced determined whether a no moving image is the probability of moving image.
In step 320, determine coordinate (vx i, vy i) absolute value whether surpassed predetermined coordinate (th1, threshold value th2) (absolute value).Each coordinate figure (th1, th2) may be one greater than one number (single pixel count), for example (2,2).
In step 330, (th1, th2), count value increases by 1 if the absolute value of motion vector coordinate is less than threshold value.
In step 340, check whether all pixels that shielding slab covered have all carried out step 320 and 330.If shielding slab is one 3 * 3, then step 320 and 330 will be carried out on 9 pixels.
In step 350, determine whether count value reaches threshold value th3, as long as (th1, th2), count value just increases by 1 to the absolute value of motion vector less than threshold value.Whether the motion vector absolute value of also promptly checking all pixels of shielding slab all is less than or equal to 1.In step 350, if count value does not surpass threshold value th3, then the motion vector absolute value of determining some pixels in the shielding slab in this case, determines that there is motion in shielding slab greater than 2.So, in step 360, (vx xy) keeps original value to pass through motion filter to the motion vector MV of C * C/2 predetermined block.
In step 350, if count value is equal to or greater than threshold value th3, determine that then all of shielding slab or the absolute value of most of pixels are equal to or less than " 1 ", in this case, determine that shielding slab does not have motion.So, in step 370, the motion vector value of the pixel that shielding slab covered is forced to change into 0, depart from the straight line that prevents output image, and be that the value of motion vector also is shown as " 1 " owing to there is not motion even the straight line that is produced departs from.
So far, the motion filter method has been described.In step 380, after the motion filter process, carry out FRC conversion and output through step 360 and the 370 final motion vectors that filter.
The present invention described above is producing following effect aspect the hardware execution:
1, owing to is used for determining that it (is C * C → C * C/2), so the consumption of memory and corresponding operational ton can reduce by half that the piece of motion vector has reduced half.
2, owing to omitted deinterleave processing and staggered the processing, it is simpler that image processing becomes, and this has caused signal processing to reduce and speed improves.
Although on hardware is carried out, produced effect, but owing to when seeking the tram of image, mistake may occur, therefore can not omit deinterleave in the traditional images processing unit and handle, this mistake causes owing to location of pixels in the picture of odd and even number field produces deviation.Yet in preferred implementation of the present invention, provide the motion filter algorithm to address this problem.This motion filter algorithm makes and looks and produced motion but actual nonmotile motion vector value is forced to " 0 ", with the straight line skew of protection output image.
Fig. 4 is the example of original input picture.
Fig. 5 shows among Fig. 4 original input picture through the local result of image processing, and this image processing has that deinterleave is handled and staggered the processing two stages;
Fig. 6 shows among Fig. 4 original input picture through the local result of image processing, the processing stage that this image processing not comprising deinterleave.Omit the deinterleave processing, thereby caused the mistake that motion vector is handled.In the circle of Fig. 6 mark, can see the straight line skew.
Fig. 7 shows among Fig. 4 original input picture according to the local result of image processing of the present invention.In the present invention, omit the deinterleave processing, alternatively provide motion filter to come the mistake of compensated motion vector.In Fig. 7, do not observe the line skew.
According to the present invention, utilize motion filter can reduce image processing hsrdware requirements to frame-rate conversion, expend and improve operating efficiency with reduction.
Although the present invention has carried out at length illustrating and describing with reference to preferred implementation, but will be understood that for the present invention, those skilled in the art can carry out various changes in form and details, and do not leave the spirit and scope of the invention, scope of the present invention is with defined by the appended claims.
