Adaptive De-Interlacing With Robust Overlapped Block Motion Compensation

The paper proposes a new method for de-interlacing video. It combines simple techniques such as field insertion and edge-adaptive line averaging as well as motion-compensated (MC) methods by a robust motion detector. The simpler techniques are preferred, and the MC method is limited to places where it is really advantageous to limit processing power without sacrificing too much quality. The final experimental results show that he proposed method needs lower complexity but achieves 2dB PSNR gain when compared to the previous method.
