TLDR
An image magnification using adaptive interpolation by pixel level data-dependent geometrical shapes is proposed that tries to take into account information about the edges (sharp luminance variations) and smoothness of the image.Abstract:
World has entered in 21 century. The technology of computer graphics and digital cameras is prevalent. High resolution display and printer are available. Therefore high resolution images are needed in order to produce high quality display images and high quality prints. However, since high resolution images are not usually provided, there is a need to magnify the original images. One common difficulty in the previous magnification techniques is that of preserving details, i.e. edges and at the same time smoothing the data for not introducing the spurious artefacts. A definitive solution to this is still an open issue. In this paper an image magnification using adaptive interpolation by pixel level data-dependent geometrical shapes is proposed that tries to take into account information about the edges (sharp luminance variations) and smoothness of the image. It calculate threshold, classify interpolation region in the form of geometrical shapes and then assign suitable values inside interpolation region to the undefined pixels while preserving the sharp luminance variations and smoothness at the same time. The results of proposed technique has been compared qualitatively and quantitatively with five other techniques. In which the qualitative results show that the proposed method beats completely the Nearest Neighbouring (NN), bilinear(BL) and bicubic(BC) interpolation. The quantitative results are competitive and consistent with NN, BL, BC and others. Keywords—Adaptive, digital image processing, image magnification, interpolation, geometrical shapes, qualitative & quantitative analysis.read more

Contour Stencils: Total Variation along Curves for Adaptive Image Interpolation
TL;DR: This work introduces contour stencils, a new method for estimating the image contours based on total variation along curves, which has linear complexity in the number of pixels and can be computed in one or a small number of passes through the image.

Interpolation-Based Super-Resolution Reconstruction: Effects of Slice Thickness
TL;DR: This paper aims to take advantage of the different in-plane resolution acquired from each plane orientation and combine them into one volume in order to attain a higher resolution image and allow the detection of smaller areas that would otherwise be missed using only one slice orientation.

Example-based super-resolution
TL;DR: This work built on another training-based super- resolution algorithm and developed a faster and simpler algorithm for one-pass super-resolution that requires only a nearest-neighbor search in the training set for a vector derived from each patch of local image data.
