A novel frame rate up-conversion method to decrease blocking and blurring factors using none rigid image registration on medical videos

Abstract

In this paper a novel method is proposed which uses the concept of image registration to predict frames as a new frame up conversion method. This frame rate up conversion method is specially designed for Ultrasound and other medical videos because of the medical Properties of the non-rigid image registration since medical mediums are usually none rigid used as a new concept to predict new frames which causes better results for these kinds of videos. In this method we interpolate new frames in the field of non-rigid transformation mesh grids in order to improve video parameters such as blocking by factor of 3, blurriness, and etc. which can help experts to detect abnormalities in such videos specially ultrasound videos much preciously.
