IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC H04N19/51 G06F7/20 

FIELD: physics, computer engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to computer engineering. The image processing apparatus has motion compensation means for performing motion compensation using as reference frames a plurality of frames formed by images obtained from decoding encoded images, and using motion vectors included in the encoded images, and for generating a plurality of images with motion compensation, which correspond to the predicted image based on different reference frames; first filtering means for applying a low-pass filter to a difference image between the plurality of images with motion compensation, generated by the motion compensation means; second filtering means for applying a high-pass filter to the image obtained by the first filtering means by applying the low-pass filter; and means of generating a predicted image for generating a predicted image by adding the image obtained by the first filtering means and the image obtained by the second filtering means to one of the plurality of images with motion compensation, generated by the motion compensation means.

EFFECT: generating a predicted image with high accuracy without increasing processor load.
