....the resulting discrete noisy and blurred image. Figure 1 illustrates this equation. Super resolution is the process of combining a sequence of low resolution (LR) noisy blurred images to produce a higher resolution image or sequence. The multi frame super resolution problem was first addressed in [1], where they proposed a frequency domain approach, extended by others such as [2] Although the frequency domain methods are intuitively simple and computationally cheap, they are extremely sensitive to model errors [3] limiting their use. Also by definition, only pure translational motion can be ....

Aizawa et al. 3] also modeled superresolution as an interpolation problem with nonuniform sampling and used a formula related to Shannon s sampling theorem to estimate values on a HR grid. All [87, 3, 73] ignored the e ect of sensor blurring.

This is an extension of our method presented in [8] which now handles more general mo tion models. While earlier research on super resolution [7, 8, 10] has dealt only with static scenes and with pure trans lational motion of the entire scene in the image plane we deal with dynamic scenes and with more complex motions within the image plane. The segmentation of the image plane into the differently moving objects and their tracking, using the ....

....in this paper. Examples are shown for low resolution gray level pictures, with an increase of resolution clearly observed after only a few iterations. The same method can also be used for deblurring a single blurred image. Earlier research on super resolution was carried out by Tsai and Huang [6], who used frequency domain methods. Their work disregarded the blur in the imaging process, and only attempted to handle loss of data due to decimation by using translated images. Gross [3] assumed that the imaging process is known, and that the relative shifts of the input pictures are known ....

The merged picture was then deblurred by convolving it with a restoration filter, obtained by applying pseudo inverse techniques to a matrix representing the blur operator.

....difficulties. The paper presents the theory and the experimental results using the new approach. 1 Introduction We have recently proposed a new algorithm for enhancing image resolution from an image sequence [1] where we compared our super resolution results with earlier research on this subject [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]. We showed that the integrating resampler [9] can be used to enhance image resolution. We further showed that warping techniques can have a strong impact on the quality of the super resolution imaging. However, left unaddressed in [1] are several important issues. Of particular interest is ....

....Furthermore, various forms of the iterative video resolution enhancement algorithm are studied experimentally. 1. INTRODUCTION In the past several years, there has been much interest in obtaining high resolution images from multiple low resolution images. The approaches presented in [3, 5, 7, 10], for example, all assume that the low resolution images are mis registered with respect to a reference frame, and that aliasing (subsampling) is present. More recently, the problem has shifted to improving the resolution of video. It is the sub pixel motion among frames which provides us with ....

Early work neglected to take this interdependency into account, as each sub problem was solved independently (for example, registeration was done in [4, 5], and restoration with known H in [5, 6, 7] More recently, the first two sub problems were combined and solved together, leaving the interpolation step to be performed separately, yielding a two step process [8, 9] In this paper, all three sub problems are solved simultaneously, using the ....

....combining multiple low resolution images to form a higher resolution one. Numerous super resolution algorithms have been proposed in the literature [39, 32, 51, 33, 29, 31, 53, 30, 34, 37, 13, 9, 35, 47, 49, 7, 38, 26, 21, 15, 23, 18] dating back to the frequency domain approach of Huang and Tsai [28]. Usually it is assumed that there is some (small) relative motion between the camera and the scene, however motionless super resolution is indeed possible if other imaging parameters (such as the amount of defocus blur) vary instead [21] If there is relative motion between the camera and the ....

....algorithms. 1. INTRODUCTION Super resolution is the process of combining several low resolution images to form a higher resolution version. Numerous superresolution algorithms have been proposed in the literature, dating back to the frequency domain approach of Huang and Tsai [10]. The first step is to register the images; i.e. compute the motion of pixels from one image to the others. We assume that registration has already been performed and focus on the second step; fusing the (aligned) low resolution images into a super resolution image. Fusion is normally based on the ....

The first to address the problem have been Huang and Tsai [5]. They were followed by Ur and Gross [13] Irani and Peleg [7] Kim et al. [8] Tekalp et al. [12] and others.

Introduction The problem of spatial resolution enhancement of video sequences has been an area of active research since the seminal work by Tsai and Huang [20] which considers the problem of resolution enhanced stills from a sequence of lowresolution (LR) images of a translated scene. Whereas in the traditional single image restoration problem only a single input image is available, the task of obtaining a superresolved image from an undersampled and ....

Landsat acquires images of the same areas of the earth in the course of its orbits, thus producing a sequence of similar, but not identical images. Observed images are modeled as under sampled versions of a ....
