Computerized method, storage medium and system to convert high-definition video images to low-definition video images

Multi-field taps are defined based on a decimated field. The multi-field taps are used to generate correlation matrices, the elements of which are used to generate covariance matrices. A principal component space is obtained by projecting the correlation matrix elements on to eigenvectors. The principal component space is partitioned into classes and a least square filter set is generated for each class.
