Generalized motion and edge adaptive interpolation de-interlacing algorithm
This paper presents a generalized motion and edge adaptive de-interlacing framework, which offers a structured way to develop de-interlacing algorithm. The framework encompasses many typical de-interlacing algorithms, ranging from simple interpolation based algorithms, to more complex edge dependent and motion adaptive algorithms. Based on this framework, we develop a new de-interlacing algorithm which is efficient and artifacts-free. The proposed algorithm was evaluated by five video sequences, namely, "Akiyo", Mother and Daughter", "Silent", "Foreman" and "Stefan". Experimental results confirm that the proposed algorithm performs, both objectively and subjectively, much better than other similar algorithms. These promising results indicate that the proposed framework has good potential for realizing even better de-interlacing algorithms.postprin
Remote experimental station for engineering education
This thesis provides a distance-learning laboratory for students of electrical and computer engineering department where the instructor can conduct experiments on a computer and send the results to the students at remote computers. The output of the experiment conducted by the instructor is sampled using a successive approximation Analog to Digital (A/D) converter. A microcontroller collects samples using high speed queued serial peripheral interface clock and transmits data to IBM-compatible personal computer over a serial port interface, where the samples are processed using Fast Fourier Transforms and graphed. The client/server application developed transfers the acquired samples over Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network with operational Graphical User Interface (GUI) to the remote computers where the samples are processed and presented to students. The application was tested on all Windows platforms and various Internet speeds (56k modem, Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), Local Area Network (LAN)). The results were analyzed and appropriate methodology of Remote Experimental Station was formulated
Advanced DeInterlacing techniques with the use of Zonal Based Algorithms
This paper describes a new highly efficient aleinterlacing approach based on motion estimation and compensation techniques. The proposed technique mainly benefits from the motion vector properties of zonal based algorithms, such as the Advanced Predictive Diamond Zonal Search (APDZS) and the Predictive Motion Vector Field Adaptive Search Technique (PMVFAST), multihypothesis motion compensation, but also an additional motion classification phase where, depending on the motion of a pixel, additional spatial and temporal information is also considered to further improve performance. Extensive simulations demonstrate the efficacy of these algorithms, especially when compared to standard deinterlacing techniques such as the line doubling and line averaging algorithms
