Abstract:
1. An information processing apparatus for converting a content data of a standard resolution signal to a high definition signal based on user input, comprising: processing means for processing the content data for increasing a resolution of the content data based on prediction taps and prediction coefficients; acquisition means for acquiring first information generated based on an input of the user for controlling the processing means; generation means for generating second information obtained by weighting the first information with a first weight and a second weight, wherein the first information indicates a spatial resolution and a temporal resolution of the content data, wherein when an automatic command/data is input by the user, the processing means processes the content data on the basis of the second information generated by the generation means, wherein the processing means calculates the prediction coefficients using the first information or the second information and generates pixel data of the high definition signal using the prediction coefficients, wherein the value of the first weight is cumulative and is updated by adding the second weight to the first weight each time the second weight is generated, and wherein the value of the second weight is determined according to the user's input operation.
