  • Publication number: 20210287338
    Abstract: An image processing circuit performs super-resolution (SR) operations. The image processing circuit includes memory to store multiple parameter sets of multiple artificial intelligent (AI) models. The image processing circuit further includes an image guidance module, a parameter decision module, and an SR engine. The image guidance module operates to detect a representative feature in an image sequence including a current frame and past frames within a time window. The parameter decision module operates to adjust parameters of one or more AI models based on a measurement of the representative feature. The SR engine operates to process the current frame using the one or more AI models with the adjusted parameters to thereby generate a high-resolution image for display.
