Effective Super-Resolution Methods for Paired Electron Microscopic Images

Super-resolution of Defocus Blurred Images

Super-resolution is a process that combines information from some low-resolution images in order to produce an image with higher resolution. In most of the previous related work, the blurriness that is associated with low resolution images is assumed to be due to the integral effect of the acquisition device’s image sensor. However, in practice there are other sources of blurriness as well, inc...

Comparison of Depth Super-Resolution Methods for 2D/3D Images

For a few years cameras have been available which are able to provide depth values gained from a PMD chip through the Time-of-Flight principle. Recently, cameras combining a normal color chip with such a PMD chip in a monocular setup have been developed. One drawback of these 2D/3D cameras is that the resolution of the depth images is much lower than those of the color images due to the limited...

Super-resolution reconstruction for tongue MR images

Magnetic resonance (MR) images of the tongue have been used in both clinical medicine and scientific research to reveal tongue structure and motion. In order to see different features of the tongue and its relation to the vocal tract it is beneficial to acquire three orthogonal image stacks-e.g., axial, sagittal and coronal volumes. In order to maintain both low noise and high visual detail, ea...

Sparsity-Based Super Resolution for SEM Images

The scanning electron microscope (SEM) is an electron microscope that produces an image of a sample by scanning it with a focused beam of electrons. The electrons interact with the atoms in the sample, which emit secondary electrons that contain information about the surface topography and composition. The sample is scanned by the electron beam point by point, until an image of the surface is f...
