ABSTRACT:
A method and a system for de-screening an image signal. The system comprises a filter bank, a control module and a blend module. The filter bank filters the image signal and produces a set of filter output signals. The control module generates at least one control signal based on the image signal and some of the filter output signals. The blend module dynamically blends the filter output signals in accordance with the control signal to produce a de-screened output signal.
