Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for determining pixels in an interpolated frame. A motion vector field is determined based on movement of pixels between first and second frames. A region of the motion vector field is clustered based on similarity of motion vectors of the motion vector field within the region. A region of discontinuity is identified comprising a portion of the motion vector field not belonging to a cluster. A determination is made as to whether the region of discontinuity is an occlusion region or a reveal region. A portion of the region of discontinuity in the interpolated frame is filled using pixel data from the first frame when the region of discontinuity is an occlusion region, and a portion of the region of discontinuity in the interpolated frame is filled using pixel data from the second frame when the region of discontinuity is a reveal region.
