20100290092IMAGE INTERPOLATION APPARATUS AND A COMPUTER READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM STORING INSTRUCTIONS OF A COMPUTER PROGRAM - An image interpolation apparatus includes an extracting unit, temporal interpolation calculators, pattern matching units, and an output unit. The extracting unit extracts pixels around the missing pixels in order to form a basic frame and comparative frames. Each temporal interpolation calculator corresponds to each comparative frame, and calculates a temporal interpolated pixel for each comparative frame based on signal levels and variation of the signal levels. Each pattern matching unit corresponds to each comparative frame, inserts the temporal interpolated pixel of each comparative frame to the missing pixel, calculates difference of between each of the pixels in the basic frame and each of the corresponding pixels in the comparative frame, and sums up the differences for all pixels in absolute value to obtain sums for all comparative frames respectively. The output unit outputs the temporal interpolated pixel having a minimum sum among the sums as a final interpolated pixel.11-18-2010
