This paper presents a novel directional median filter based deinterlacing algorithm dmfd. It is particularly effective at removing salt and pepper type noise. The median filter is an algorithm that is useful for the removal of impulse noise also known as binary noise, which is manifested in a digital image by corruption of the captured image with bright and dark pixels that appear randomly throughout the spatial distribution.

Median filtering is a nonlinear method used to remove noise from images. For information about performance considerations, see ordfilt2. A median filter is a nonlinear filter in which each output sample is computed as the median value of the input samples under the window that is, the result is the middle value after the input values have been sorted. Deinterlacing by blending which is one of the most frequent ways to deinterlace simluates fluent motion by blurring and mushes 2 consecutive pictures together.
However, its use has long been hampered by its algorithmic complexity of or in the kernel radius. The most common method uses a threepixel median filter, with one pixel above and below the current pixel, and one pixel right behind it in the previous field. Median filtering 23 is by far the most popular example. Note that if you enable deinterlacing from the menu, the setting will only take effect for the currently playing video. Since median filter has the drawback of distorting vertical details and introducing alias 2, edgebased median filtering emf algorithms with motion compensation are. The median is a more robust average than the mean and so a single very unrepresentative pixel in a neighborhood will not affect the median value significantly.
