Motion Adaptive Deinterlacing via Edge Pattern Recognition

In this paper, a novel edge pattern recognition (EPR) deinterlacing algorithm with successive 4-field enhanced motion detection is introduced. The EPR algorithm surpasses the performance of ELA-based and other conventional methods especially at textural scenes. In addition, the current 4-field enhanced motion detection scheme overcomes conventional motion missing artifacts by gaining good motion detection accuracies and suppression of "motion missing" detection errors efficiently. Furthermore, with the incorporation of our new successive 4-field enhanced motion detection, the interpolation technique of EPR algorithm is capable of flexible adaptation in achieving better performance on textural scenes in generic video sequences.
