Investigation of multi-frame image super-resolution based on adaptive self-learning methods

ABSTRACT

The goal of this paper is to introduce and demonstrate a new high-performance super-resolution (SR) method for multi-frame images. By combining learning-based and reconstruction-based SR methods, this paper proposes a multi-frame image super-resolution method based on adaptive self-learning. Using the adaptive self-learning method and recovery of high-frequency edge information, an initial high-resolution (HR) image containing effective texture information is obtained. The edge smoothness prior is then used to satisfy the global reconstruction constraint and enhance the quality of the HR image. Our results indicate that this method achieves better performance than several other methods for both simulated data and real-scene images.
