Image
Super-Resolution
In image super-resolution (SR), one tries
to obtain a high resolution image from several low-resolution (LR)
images with overlapping fields of view. SR algorithms first
estimate the relative disparity among the different LR images to
achieve a precise registration and then try to obtain a high-resolution
image by properly combining the registered images. In this project we
are investigating the use of new sampling schemes to achieve a very
accurate registration of very low-resolution multi-view images and then
we achieve super-resolution by exploiting some a-priori knowledge of
the properties of the original image (See the figures below for an
example).
To probe further,
check-out our video showing the performance of our
super-resolution algorithm in Loic Baboulaz homepage.
