Abstract: A first motion vector detecting unit calculates a first matching error by detecting a first motion vector based on a first frame and a second frame. A second motion vector detecting unit calculates a second matching error by detecting a second motion vector based on the second frame and a third frame. A local determining unit determines whether a discontinuously moving object is present in a continuously moving background, based on an absolute difference value between the first motion vector and the second motion vector, and the first and second matching errors. An integrating unit integrates determination values for each block within a frame. A determining unit determines whether an image signal is a specific moving image in which the discontinuously moving object is present in a continuously moving background, based on a pattern of integrated values of at least two frames.

Abstract: A storage device stores dither patterns composed of a three-dimensional block consisting of the number H of dots in a horizontal direction x the number V of lines in a vertical direction x the number F in a frame direction. Each value from a minimum value to a maximum value of dither values of n bits is written in each address of the storage device. When each value is written into the storage device, processing of obtaining a spatiotemporal density value indicating a degree of density of an address in which a dither value has already been written in a three-dimensional predetermined area centered on each of the addresses in which a new dither value is writable, and processing of selecting an address having the smallest spatiotemporal density value among the addresses in which a new dither value is writable and writing a dither value are repeated.

Abstract: N (N?2) time stretch units receive N channels of second image data which are obtained by dividing each line of first image data by N and are composed of a first number of bits. Each N time stretch unit arranges pixels of the N channels in the order of the pixels of the corresponding line of the first image data within a period which is obtained by stretching a one-line period of the second image data. The N time stretch units generate third image data including N lines of the first image data. N encoders encode each coding target pixel of the third image data outputted from the N time stretch units using a difference between the target pixel and a peripheral pixel to generate encoded data composed of a second number of bits which is smaller than the first number of bits.

The first frame signal is a current frame having a first number of bits. A second RGB converter is configured to place at least one lower bit of the first frame signal on the least significant bit side of a second frame signal to form composite data having the first number of bits and to convert the composite data to a second RGB signal. The second frame signal is a previous frame having a second number of bits composed of upper bits of the first number of bits other than at least one lower bit. An overdrive processing unit is configured to correct an amplitude of the first RGB signal corresponding to the difference between the first and second RGB signals.

Abstract: A motion vector detector detects, using pixel data in at least two real frames in an input video signal, a motion vector MV1 necessary for generating interpolated pixel data forming an interpolated frame to be inserted between the two real frames. A motion vector corrector corrects the motion vector MV1 to decrease the magnitude of motion vector MV1 when the magnitude of motion vector MV1 exceeds a predetermined threshold, and outputs it as a motion vector MV3.
