    摘要: An interlaced input picture signal having a field frequency of 50 Hz is supplied. A class detecting circuit detects a class corresponding to a pattern of a level distribution of input pixels in the vicinity of an output pixel to be generated. A predictive coefficient set corresponding to the class is read from a predictive coefficient memory. Sum-of-product calculating circuits calculate data of an output picture signal using a linear estimating expression of predictive taps (pixels of an input picture signal) and predictive coefficient sets. The sum-of-product calculating circuits output pixel values M and S of an output picture signal having a field frequency of 50 Hz. The pixel values M and S that are output from the sum-of-product calculating circuits are converted into a signal having a frequency of 60 Hz by respective field memories. A selector alternately selects outputs of the field memories and generates an output picture signal (having a field frequency of 60 Hz).
