Abstract

Systems and devices for, and methods of, motion-compensated temporal filtering based on variable filter parameters. A method embodiment includes (a) determining, by a processor having memory, a pixel-related residue image based on a set of differences between a current pixel intensity of a current frame and a corresponding pixel intensity of a previous frame, wherein the corresponding pixel intensity is augmented by a motion-compensated vector of the previous frame; (b) determining an intensity weight based on the determined pixel-related residue image and a temporal filtering parameter; and (c) filtering the pixel intensity of the current frame based on the determined intensity weight and the motion compensated vector of the previous frame.
