Abstract

See full text

A method and system are provided in which a processor, such as a video processor, may determine a flatness value for a current video picture and may adjust a mosquito noise filtering of a subsequent video picture based on the determined flatness value. The flatness value may be determined within a predetermined region of the current video picture, which may be dynamically modified by the processor. The flatness value may be associated with the presence of analog noise in the current video picture, and may be determined based on horizontal and vertical variance values determined for one or more portions of the current video picture. The processor may adjust a mosquito noise strength value of the current video picture based on the determined flatness value and may adjust the mosquito noise filtering of the subsequent video picture based on the adjusted mosquito noise strength value of the current video picture.
