This paper work directly towards the improving the quality of the image for the digital cameras and other visual capturing products. In this Paper, the authors clearly defines the problems occurs in the CFA image. A different methodology for removing the noise is discuses in the paper for color correction and color balancing of the image. At the same time, the authors also proposed a new method...

The paper introduces a low-cost algorithm for improving the demosaicking process in the texture areas such as one-pixel patterns. The algorithm first detects difficult texture regions. After the detection process is completed, the algorithm demosaicks the texture areas using special demosaicking operations whereas non-texture regions are restored using some of the existing demosaicking approach...

In this article we investigate 'real-time' watermarking of single-sensor digital camera images (often called 'raw' images) and blind watermark detection in demosaicked images. We describe the software-only implementation of simple additive spread-spectrum embedding in the firmware of a digital camera. For blind watermark detection, we develop a scheme which adaptively combines the polyphase com...

This article introduces a new image sharpening approach suitable for single-sensor digital cameras equipped with a Bayer color filter array (CFA). The proposed solution firstly enhances the structural content of the captured CFA image data. Subsequent demosaicking of the enhanced CFA image data produces a visually pleasing full-color image which is noticeably sharper compared to the output of t...

In this paper, an effective image demosaicking algorithm, which is based on the correlation among the three primary colors, is proposed for mosaic image with Bayer color filter array (CFA). To reduce the distortion and improve the reconstruction quality, the proposed interpolation method makes full use of the brightness information and the edge information. We design several filters with size o...

Digital cameras have become popular and many people are choosing to take their pictures with digital cameras instead of film cameras. When a digital image is recorded, the camera needs to perform a significant amount of processing to provide the user a viewable image. This processing includes white balance adjustment, gamma correction, compression and more (reference “Color Image Processing Pip...

Limitation in the resolution of CCD image sensors has provided motivation to enhance the resolution of images. Super-resolution has been applied mainly to grayscale images, and producing a high-resolution color image from a single CCD sensor has not been discussed thoroughly. This work aims at producing a high-resolution color image directly from ”color mosaic” images obtained by a singleCCD wi...

Color filter array (CFA) demosaicking is an essential process for restoring full-color images from incomplete color samples acquired by single-sensor digital cameras. We present two main contributions to CFA demosaicking. First, we analyze the causes of two main types of CFA demosaicking artifacts and examine the schemes that are effective in suppressing them, respectively. Second, by combining...
