Interpolated Mth-band filters for image size conversion
Image/video size conversion at variable rates requires that a large set of interpolation filters should be stored in a table. We present the interpolated Mth-band filters as the interpolation filters, which are obtained from the cubic spline interpolation of a prototype M/sub p/th-band eigenfilter. The proposed filter can be calculated in real time, eliminating the need for a large on-chip memory. Scaled images using the proposed filters show superb image quality.
