Abstract

See full text

Apparatus and methods for generating interpolated frames in digital image or video data. In one embodiment, the interpolation is based on a hierarchical tree sequence. At each level of the tree, an interpolated frame may be generated using original or interpolated frames of the video, such as those closest in time to the desired time of the frame to be generated. The sequence proceeds through lower tree levels until a desired number of interpolated frames, a desired video length, a desired level, or a desired visual quality for the video is reached. In some implementations, the sequence may use different interpolation algorithms (e.g., of varying computational complexity or types) at different levels of the tree. The interpolation algorithms can include for example those based on frame repetition, frame averaging, motion compensated frame interpolation, and motion blending.
