چکیده

A new method called ‘‘edge-preserving 8-directional two-layered weighting interpolation’’ is proposed for interpolating unfilled pixels in a perspective-view or panoramic image resulting from unwarping an omni-image taken by a non-single-view-point hypercatadioptric camera. This method can solve the problem of edge preserving in interpolating the input image which has many irregularly-distributed unfilled pixels. Three concepts of weighting have been considered in the proposed edge-preserving interpolation process: (1) inverse-distance weighting; (2) pixel-count weighting; and (3) region-wise weighting. Good experimental results showing the effectiveness of edge preserving and its superiority to other methods are also included. 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Peripheral Detail-based Edge Preserving Image Interpolation Scheme

Interpolation is a common technique for predicting unknown data points within the range of discrete known data points. In image processing and analysis applications, image interpolation is employed for changing image resolution but also for tasks like image rotation and other transformations. Classical image interpolation algorithms such as nearest neighbour, bilinear and bicubic interpolation ...

Tuning Shape Parameter of Radial Basis Functions in Zooming Images using Genetic Algorithm

Image zooming is one of the current issues of image processing where maintaining the quality and structure of the zoomed image is important. To zoom an image, it is necessary that the extra pixels be placed in the data of the image. Adding the data to the image must be consistent with the texture in the image and not to create artificial blocks. In this study, the required pixels are estimated ...

Efficient Antialiased Edit Propagation for Images and Videos

Edit propagation on images/videos has become more and more popular in recent years due to simple and intuitive interaction. It propagates sparse user edits to the whole data following the policy that nearby regions with similar appearances receive similar edits. While it gives a friendly editing mode, it often produces aliasing artifacts on edge pixels. In this paper, we present a simple algori...

Fast edge-preserving gravity-like image interpolation

In this paper we propose a novel image interpolation algorithm which preserves edges and keeps a natural texture of interpolated images. The algorithm is based on an idea that only pixels that belong to the same side of an edge should be used in interpolation of pixels that belong to an edge. Beside similarity-based separation of known interpolation pixels a gravity-like interpolation coefficie...

Adaptive Color Filter Array Interpolation Algorithm Based on Hue Transition and Edge Direction

Most of the digital cameras used now has single sensor with an array of color filters to capture the digital images. Color Filter Array (CFA) uses alternating color filters to sample only one color of a pixel location to reduce the price. In the entire image, only one third of sampled pixels have genuine values from the sensors. Remaining pixels are interpolated from these genuine values. In th...
