Image enhancement by nonlinear extrapolation in frequency space
نویسندگان
چکیده
A technique for enhancing the perceptual sharpness of an image is described. The enhancement algorithm augments the frequency content of the image using shape-invariant properties of edges across scale by using a nonlinearity that generates phase coherent higher harmonics. The procedure utilizes the Laplacian transform and the Laplacian pyramid image representation. Results are presented depicting the power-spectra augmentation and the visual enhancement of several images. Simplicity of computations and ease of implementation allow for real-time applications such as high-definition television (HDTV).

Image Quality Enhancement Using Pixel Wise Gamma Correction
This paper presents a new automatic image enhancement method by modifying the gamma value of its individual pixels. Most of existing gamma correction methods apply a uniform gamma value across the image. Considering the fact that gamma variation for a single image is actually nonlinear, the proposed method locally estimates the gamma values in an image using support vector machine. First, a dat...
متن کاملA Deep Model for Super-resolution Enhancement from a Single Image
This study presents a method to reconstruct a high-resolution image using a deep convolution neural network. We propose a deep model, entitled Deep Block Super Resolution (DBSR), by fusing the output features of a deep convolutional network and a shallow convolutional network. In this way, our model benefits from high frequency and low frequency features extracted from deep and shallow networks...
متن کاملDense frequency maps by Structure Tensor and logarithmic scale space: application to forensic fingerprints
Increasingly, reliable absolute frequency and orientation maps are needed, e.g. for image enhancement. Less studied is however the mutual dependence of both maps, and how to estimate them when none is known initially. We introduce a logarithmic scale space generated by the trace of Structure Tensor to study the relationship. The scale space is non-linear and absolute frequency estimation is red...
متن کاملResolution Enhancement by Forward-and-backward Nonlinear Diffusion Processes
A resolution enhancement scheme is presented. It consists of interpolation followed by processing with an adaptive nonlinear forward-and-backwarddi usion process that enhances edges while suppressing interpolation ringings and denoising smooth areas. keywords: super-resolution, image interpolation, anisotropic di usion, image enhancement, scale-space.
متن کاملCompressed Domain Implementation of Fuzzy Rule-Based Contrast Enhancement
Since the resolution of images increased in the past few years, the requirements for large storage space and fast process, directly in the compressed domain, becomes essential. Fuzzy rule-based contrast enhancement, is a well-known rather simple approach with good visual results, but as any fuzzy algorithm, it is by default nonlinear, thus not straightforward applicable on the JPEG bitstream (z...
