Abstract: PURPOSE: To attain noise reduction through a filter for filtering only the noise- containing signal sections in digital video signals. CONSTITUTION: Each circuit means is operated by a fuzzy logic and provided with inference circuits (look-up tables) C1 and C2 and digital subtracters S1-S4. Each subtracter has an input terminal and is provided for receiving an individual digital video signal for reporting information concerning the pixel to be processed. The number of circuit means included in a filter 1 depends on the size of an image to be processed, and secondly, depends on the number of directions under the operation of a line operator. While using fuzzy type logic rules, a noise calculation circuit 4 compares trigger levels determined in the circuits C1 and C2 with such a trigger level. Thus, noise contained in the digital video signal are reduced effectively.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress noise affected on a specific area of a field scanned by the unit of lines by replacing a pixel having noise with an average pixel value of a nearby pixel belonging to a prescribed processing window. SOLUTION: A difference calculation circuit calculates a difference Di (D1-D7) between luminance values Xi (X1-X7) of a pixel adjacent to a processing pixel value X of a processing window. Then a Dmax &Dmin detection block identifies a maximum value and a minimum value of a received difference Di. Upon the receipt of the Dmax and Dmin by an adaptive threshold level detection processing block adopting a 1st fuzzy logic, they are referenced as a membership 1 and corresponding values to the threshold levels Th1, Th2 are generated. Then a local adaptive noise smoothing processing block adopting a 2nd fuzzy block generates a set of output values Ki based on the threshold level parameters Th1, Th2 referenced by a membership 2 and generated before. A final filter block generates a pixel Xout as a sum of weighting factors.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To provide high resolution of video and to eliminate the defects of conventional techniques by providing a calculation block which is connected to an input terminal and operated by a fuzzy-logic based processing method and which executes a switch between at least two different interpolation processing methods. CONSTITUTION: For a TV signal scanning converting device 1, luminance/ chrominance signals CFy and CFuv and signals PFy and PFuv corresponding to image fields are inputted to an interface(IF) 2. The IF 2 is operated with a fuzzy logic and supplies TV signals components Xy and Piy to input terminals Pi and X of a filtering block 3. A calculation block CALC1 is operated with a fuzzy logic processing method, receives a luminance component Y and detects the front and motion of a TV signal, while utilizing information in two continuous image fields. On the other hand, an arithmetic block 5 inputs an average parameter, which is calculated based on pixels (Pi , Pj and x) of image fields, to the calculation block CALC1 . A block MAX calculates and outputs the peak value of plural signals to be inputted.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce image quality deterioration by correcting a pixel value according to both an global feature of a video image block to which the pixel belongs and a local feature of video areas in the vicinity of the pixel so as to attenuate grating noise and stepwise noise. SOLUTION: A global feature GF and a local feature LF of an input video image In evaluated by a feature extract block FE is fed to a fuzzy processing block FUZZY as an input, and a parameter FA proper to decision of a type of filter processing is decided according to a fuzzy criterion. A filter pattern FP decided by a filter compensation block FC is fed to a processing block PROC to which the input video image In is directly supplied and the block PROC applies filter processing of the input video image In based on the filter pattern FP. Thus, low pass filter processing is applied to video areas in the vicinity of grating noise and an edge to reduce both grating noise and stepwise noise.
