Image resolution enhancement using transform

Abstract

In this project, interruption based image resolution enhancement technique using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) with high-frequency sub bands obtained is proposed. Input images are decomposed by using DWT in this proposed enhancement technique. Inverse DWT is used to generate a new resolution enhanced image from the interpolation of high-frequency sub band images and the input low-resolution image. Intermediate stage has been proposed for estimating the high frequency sub bands to achieve a sharper image. It has been tested on benchmark images from public database. Peak Signal-To-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and visual results show the dominance of the proposed technique over the predictable and state-of-art image resolution enhancement techniques.
