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: 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: The analog processor of this invention can carry out processings independently of the operating temperature and process parameters, in a reliable manner and at high performance levels using fairly simple circuitry. To achieve this independence, the processor is basically implemented and integrated with MOS transistors, has both voltage inputs (AI) and outputs (OUT), and includes a biasing section (BIAS) which supplies voltage bias signals (VG), of which at least one is substantially the sum of a voltage proportional to the threshold voltage of the MOS transistors and a reference voltage. This reference voltage can be extracted from a reference potential which is stable to temperature and process parameters, for example that produced by a bandgap type of generator. A major feature of the processor according to the invention is the linearity of its input-output characteristic relative to that reference voltage. It follows that it may be advantageous to extract that reference voltage by division from a signal indicating the width of the input signal variation range, thereby to achieve compensation for or independence of variations of this range.
