Abstract:
Techniques related to demosaicing for digital image processing are discussed. Such techniques include correcting defective pixels by detecting hot and warm pixels and correcting such detected hot and warm pixels based on neighboring pixels and angle compensation including detecting dominant angles and compensating for such detected angles during demosaicing.
Abstract:
Systems, apparatus, articles, and methods are described including operations to generate a weighted look-up-table based at least in part on individual pixel input values within an active block region and on a plurality of contrast compensation functions. A second level compensation may be performed for a center pixel block of the active region based at least in part on the weighted look-up-table.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a method is disclosed. The method includes performing a local content analysis on video data to classify pixels into singular pixels, motion pixels and static pixels.
Abstract:
Techniques are disclosed involving contrast adjustment for images. For example, an input image is classified based on its pixel value characteristics, as expressed in an input brightness histogram. From such a classification, a target histogram distribution for a corresponding output image (i.e., a contrast-adjusted transformation of the input image) may be specified. With the target histogram of the output image specified, a transformation function may be derived that maps input image values to output image values. Moreover, transitions of such transformation functions may be smoothed. Such smoothing may provide advantages, such as a reduction in flickering associated with video data.
Abstract:
A system, apparatus, method, and article to process a flexible macroblock ordering and arbitrary slice ordering are described. The apparatus may include a video decoder. The video decoder includes a processor to store coding parameters of one or more neighboring macroblocks in a data buffer. The neighboring macroblocks are previously decoded macroblocks and are adjacent to a current macroblock. The processor is to store control parameters for each of the one or more neighboring macroblocks in the data buffer. The processor is to reconstruct coding parameters for the current macroblock using availability information associated with the neighboring macroblocks.

Abstract:
A system, apparatus, method, and article to process a chroma motion vector are described. The apparatus may include a video decoder. The video decoder includes a processor to receive a compressed video bitstream. The compressed video bitstream includes a stream of pictures. The stream of pictures includes a current slice and a current block within the slice. The processor pre-computes a chroma motion vector adjustment parameter for the current slice and determines a motion vector component for the current block within the current slice using the pre-computed chroma motion vector adjustment parameter. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
An embodiment improves the operation of a H.264 and Joint Scalable Video Codec (e.g., JSVC/H.264 Amendment 3) video decoder by managing neighboring block data during the decoding process. An embodiment pre-computes neighboring block tables to efficiently locate the neighboring block data required to decode a current macroblock. In particular, the pre-computed most probable joint neighboring block tables disclosed herein handle both macroblock adaptive frame field (MBAFF) coding and non-MBAFF coding. An embodiment is further capable of managing variable block sizes. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
