Abstract
This paper proposes an efficient content adaptive screen image scaling scheme for the real-time screen applications like remote desktop and screen sharing. In the proposed screen scaling scheme, a screen content classification step is first introduced to classify the screen image into text and pictorial regions. Afterward, we propose an adaptive shift linear interpolation algorithm to predict the new pixel values with the shift offset adapted to the content type of each pixel. The shift offset for each screen content type is offline optimized by minimizing the theoretical interpolation error based on the training samples respectively. The proposed content adaptive screen image scaling scheme can achieve good visual quality and also keep the low complexity for real-time applications.
