    摘要: A delay register section 31 holds SD pixels of a luminance signal and a classification section 33 decides a class, reads a coefficient corresponding to the decision result from a coefficient RAM section 40, and outputs the coefficient to a product-sum section 38. The product-sum section 38 captures the pixel data for 17 taps from the delay register section 31, converts the pixel data into seven taps, and outputs them to the product-sum section 38. The product-sum section 38 performs the product-sum operation of pixel data and coefficients and outputs the operation result as HD pixels. An interpolation pixel operation section 42 applies a simple interpolation processing different from the case of a luminance signal to the pixel data of a color signal component to generate HD pixels of a color signal. Thus, downsizing and cost reducing can be realized.

    摘要: An amount-of-movement detection device which is capable of detecting the amount of movement with a high degree of accuracy when the amount of movement of an image is detected by hierarchical block matching method. An amount-of-movement detection device 1 forms image data S2.sub.n and S3.sub.n of plural hierarchies having different resolutions from each other, by input image S1.sub.n input at a first point in time, and forms multiplexed image data S2.sub.n-1 and S3.sub.n-1 of a higher hierarchy of low resolution, based on an input image S1.sub.n-1 input at a second point in time, by selecting pixels overlapping with each other from the image data of the lower hierarchy having higher resolution and reducing them in size, in order to detect a motion vector by block matching at a predetermined block unit for each of the hierarchies corresponding to the hierarchized image data S2.sub.n and S3.sub.n and the multiplexed and hierarchized image data S2.sub.n-1 and S3.sub.n-1. Thus, the accuracy in the detection of an amount of movement can be greatly enhanced.

    摘要: This invention relates to an information-signal-processing apparatus etc. for performing a series of processing pieces by using plural functional blocks in response to any information signals, in which functions can be easily upgraded through version upgrading of the functional blocks. Control block 110 issues a common command and transmits it to a control block 120 via a control bus 111. Control I/F 120 of the functional block 120 converts this common command into an intra-functional-block command if the common command is the common command related to its own functional block, and supplies the functional section 120e with it. This enables the functional block 120 to operate adaptively in accordance with the common command. When performing upgrade of the functions by the version updating of a predetermined function block, the common command need not be changed.

    摘要: A device generates coefficient data of an estimating equation for converting a first information signal to a second information signal. The device performs decimation on a teacher signal to generate a student signal and acquires plural training data items from the teacher signal corresponding to the second information signal and the student signal corresponding to the first information signal. For each training data item, a similarity determination unit acquires the similarity of the student signal with respect to the first information signal corresponding to a second information signal at a position of interest. Coefficient seed data, which are coefficient data of a generation equation including the similarity as a parameter, are determined using the training data items and the similarity. A coefficient data computing unit determines, based on the generation equation, coefficient data of the estimating equation using the coefficient seed data and a similarity value indicating the highest similarity.
