Weighted Interpolation Scheme for Robust Video Deinterlacing

In this letter, a low-cost weighted interpolation scheme (WIS) for deinterlacing within a single frame is discussed. Three useful weights measurements are introduced within the operation window to reduce false decisions on the basis of the LCID algorithm. The WIS algorithm has a simple weight-evaluating structure with low complexity, which therefore makes it easy to implement in hardware. Experimental results demonstrated that the WIS algorithm performs better than previous techniques.
