Abstract
An apparatus for creating an interpolation frame includes a first computing unit that computes a first motion vector in relation to a first block in a first reference frame, a second extracting unit that extracts a second block in a second reference frame based on the first motion vector, a first calculating unit that calculates a correlation between the first block and the second block, a third extracting unit that extracts a third block that is shifted from the second block by a certain number of pixels, a second calculating unit that calculates a correlation between the first block and the third block, and a third computing unit that computes a motion vector for an interpolation block based on a most-highly correlated block-pair.
