Wavelet-content-adaptive BP neural network-based deinterlacing algorithm

초록

In this paper, we introduce an intra-field deinterlacing algorithm based on a wavelet-content-adaptive back propagation (BP) neural network (BP-NN) using pixel classification. During interpolation, there is an issue of different image features having completely different properties, such as smooth regions, edges, and textures. We use the wavelet transform to divide the images into several pieces with different properties. Then, each piece has similar image features and each one is assigned to one neural network. The BP-NN-based deinterlacing algorithm can reduce blurring by recovering the missing pixels via a learning process. Compared with existing deinterlacing algorithms, the proposed algorithm improves the peak signal-to-noise ratio and visual quality while maintaining high efficiency.
