Abstract:
1. A method of generating a third frame between a first frame and a second frame, the method comprising: generating at least one motion vector for generating the third frame by performing motion estimation based on first image data and second image data, the first image data being a portion of image data of the first frame and the second image data being a portion of image data of the second frame; restoring the image data of the first frame based on first remaining image data and at least one of the first image data and the second image data, and restoring the image data of the second frame based on second remaining image data and at least one of the first image data and the second image data; and generating the third frame by performing motion compensation based on at least one of the restored image data of the first frame and the restored image data of the second frame and the generated at least one motion vector, wherein the first remaining image data is obtained by excluding the first image data from the image data of the first frame and the second remaining image data is obtained by excluding the second image data from the image data of the second frame, the first image data and the second image data are used for motion estimation, and the first remaining image data and the second remaining image data are not used for motion estimation.
