Abstract
Temporal filtering operations may be reset for certain pixels within an image frame to reduce contribution from previous input frames to reduce ghosting and other artifacts. The resetting reduces the contribution to, for example, zero, either immediately or within a predetermined period of time (e.g., a certain number of frames). A decision regarding whether to reset temporal filtering for a pixel of the image frame may be based on a probability assigned to that pixel. The probability can be based on rules with one or more criteria. One example factor for adjusting probability is a confidence level regarding the temporal filtering decision for the pixel, in which the probability for a random reset of a pixel is based on the confidence level regarding the temporal filtering decision for those pixels.
