Abstract

One of the most severe problems in video denoising is its block-based approach, which leads to distortions called blocking artifacts. This study aimed to present a deblocking filter based on motion threshold estimation and boundary determination. The luminance effect of human visual system (HVS) is also considered to adjust filter. The proposed method has smoother deblocking effect and better detail preservation than other methods. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better results in both the subjective and objective performance than other algorithms.
