Abstract

A method and system for ghost detection in an image are described. Initially, a mode for detecting ghosting artifact is determined for deciding whether to perform analog or inter field ghosting analysis on the image. Based on the determined mode, a plurality of fields is determined to generate a field overlay image. The image is updated based on the field overlay image and an inter-field average of absolute difference is computed. A significant edge image, a principal edge image, and a delta gradient image are generated. A confidence score indicative of a likelihood of ghosting artifact in the image, is computed based on at least the inter-field average of absolute difference, a first and a second count of pixels in the delta gradient image, a third count of pixels in the principal edge image, and a count of rows of the significant edge image that correspond to the ghosting artifact.
