Abstract
An electronic device includes memory and motion compensated temporal filtering (MCTF) circuitry communicatively coupled to the memory. The MCTF circuitry is configured to receive a plurality of motion vectors. The MCTF circuitry is also configured to retrieve a plurality of source pixel values and a plurality of reference pixel values from the memory. The plurality of source pixel values and the plurality of reference pixel values correspond to the plurality of motion vectors. The MCTF circuitry is further configured to determine motion vector edge statistics based on the plurality of motion vectors. The MCTF circuitry is further configured to generate a plurality of filtered pixel values by filtering the plurality of source pixel values based on the plurality of reference pixel values and the motion vector edge statistics.
