چکیده

We propose a method to synthetically create or restore typical color filter array (CFA) pattern in digital images. This can be useful, inter alia, to conceal traces of manipulation from forensic techniques that analyze the CFA structure of images. For continuous signals, our solution maintains optimal image quality, using a quadratic cost function; and it can be computed efficiently. Our general approach allows to derive even more efficient approximate solutions that achieve linear complexity in the number of pixels. The effectiveness of the CFA synthesis as tamper-hiding technique and its superior image quality is backed with experimental evidence on large image sets and against state-of-the-art forensic techniques. This exposition is confined to the most relevant ‘Bayer’-grid, but the method can be generalized to other layouts as well.

Efficient estimation of CFA pattern configuration in digital camera images

This paper proposes an efficient method to determine the concrete configuration of the color filter array (CFA) from demosaiced images. This is useful to decrease the degrees of freedom when checking for the existence or consistency of CFA artifacts in typical digital camera images. We see applications in a wide range of multimedia security scenarios whenever inter-pixel correlation plays an im...

Adaptive Optimum Notch Filter for Periodic Noise Reduction in Digital Images

Periodic noises are unwished and spurious signals that create repetitive pattern on images and decreased the visual quality. Firstly, this paper investigates various methods for reducing the effects of the periodic noise in digital images. Then an adaptive optimum notch filter is proposed. In the proposed method, the regions of noise frequencies are determined by analyzing the spectral of noisy...

Bayer and panchromatic color filter array demosaicing by sparse recovery

The utility of Compressed Sensing (CS) for demosaicing of digital images have been explored by few recent efforts [1][2][3]. Most recently, a Compressive Demosaicing [3] framework, based on employing a random panchromatic Color Filter Array (CFA) at the sensing stage, has provided compelling CS-based demosaicing results by visually outperforming other leading techniques. Meanwhile, it is well k...

Demosaicing low resolution QVGA bayer pattern

In this paper, we present a solution for the interpolation of low resolution digital images. Many digital cameras can function in two resolution modes: VGA (i.e., 640×480) and QVGA (i.e., 320×240). These cameras use a single sensor covered with a Color Filter Array (CFA). The CFA allows only one color component to be measured at each pixel, the remaining color components must be interpolated, t...

Comparative Study of Demosaicing Algorithms for Bayer and Pseudo-Random Bayer Color Filter Arrays

The image registration by digital cameras and video cameras requires digital filters to be posed onto the photo-sensitive sensors (CCD and CMOS). The filters are arranged in patterns across the face of the image sensing array. The most commonly used color filter array is Bayer pattern. An alternative of this pattern is a Pseudo-Random Bayer color filter array (CFA). Its structure differs consid...
