Artifact reduction of interpolated color filter array images using modified mean-removed classified vector quantization
نویسندگان
چکیده
To reduce the artifacts due to color filter array (CFA) interpolation, a modified mean-removed classified vector quantization algorithm is proposed. The algorithm extends and modifies vector quantization to discover the relationships between the G channels of interpolated images and their corresponding original versions using the information from CFA images. The discovered relationships are stored in two codebooks and are used to improve the edge and texture quality of G channels of interpolated images. After the interpolated G values are refined, the interpolated R and B values can also be improved using the refined G values. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively reduce the artifacts of interpolated CFA images. Comparing our method and the best CFA interpolation algorithm as far as we know, the PSNR improvements of R, G, B channels are 0.89 dB, 0.71 dB, and 0.74 dB, respectively.

Post-processing of Interpolated Color Filter Array Images using Modified Mean- removed Classified Vector Quantization
To reduce the cost of digital still cameras, the CFA (color filter array) is usually coasted upon an image sensor. Each pixel of image sensor can sense only one of the R, G, B colors under color filter array. The missing two colors of a pixel have to be estimated from its neighboring pixels. Many color filter array interpolation methods are proposed. However, there are always annoying artifacts...

Digital cameras to reduce cost, use an image sensor to capture color images. Color Filter Array (CFA) in digital cameras permits only one of the three primary (red-green-blue) colors to be sensed in a pixel and interpolates the two missing components through a method named demosaicking. Captured data is interpolated into a full color image and compressed in applications. Color interpolation bef...

Reducing the number of colors in an image while preserving its quality, is of importance in many applications such as image analysis and compression. It also decreases memory and transmission bandwidth requirements. Moreover, classification of image colors is applicable in image segmentation and object detection and separation, as well as producing pseudo-color images. In this paper, the Kohene...

t: Digital color cameras use a single sensor equipped with a color filter array (CFA) to capture scenes in color. Since each sensor cell can record only one color value, the other two missing components at each position need to be interpolated. The color interpolation process is usually called color demosaicking (CDM). The quality of demosaicked images is degraded due to the sensor noise introd...
