Abstract(in English) Realizing of the super high definition video (4K18K) require the format conversion between different picture formats and the improvement of image quality of the converted image. To suppress the coding cost, pixel number reduction to be coded is discussed. In these system, picture quality of up converted picture, such as HDTV to 4K, is most important. In this report, the subjective assessment for the scaled images processed by different scaling factor and filter order are studied. The enhance processing to improvement sharpness with increase the high frequency component in residual band. Frequency characteristic of filter is discussed. The subjective assessments are executed with double stimulation. The results shows that the enhancement gives better MOS. This means that the lack of high frequency component can be compensated by enhancement of relatively low frequency component.
