As higher quality of image is required for digital image scaling, longer processing time is required. Therefore the technology that can make higher quality image quickly is needed. We propose the double linear-cubic convolution interpolation which creates the high quality image with low complexity and hardware resources. The proposed interpolation methods which are made up of four one-dimensional linear interpolations and one one-dimensional cubic convolution perform linear-cubic convolution interpolation in horizontal and vertical direction. When compared in aspects of peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR), performance time and amount of hardware resources, the proposed interpolation provided better PSNR, low complexity and less hardware resources than bicubic convolution interpolation.

In this paper, we present an adaptive parametric cubic convolution technique in order to enlarge the low resolution image to the high resolution image. The proposed method consists of two steps. During the first interpolation step, we acquire adaptive parameters in introducing a new cost-function to reflect frequency properties. And, the second interpolation step performs cubic convolution by applying the parameters obtained from the first step. The enhanced interpolation kernel using adaptive parameters produces output image better than the conventional one using a fixed parameter. Experimental results show that the proposed method can not only provides the performances of $0.5{\sim}4dB$ improvements in terms of PSNR, but also exhibit better edge preservation ability and original image similarity than conventional methods in the enlarged images.

The purpose of this paper is an adaptive image interpolation using parametric cubic convolution. Proposed method derive parameter of adapting the frequency from adjacent values. The parameter optimize the interpolation kernel of cubic convolution. Simulation results show that the proposed method is superior to the conventional method in terms of the subjective and objective image quality.

Recently, the use of security surveillance system including CCTV is increasing due to the increase of terrors and crimes. At the same time, interest of face recognition at a distance using surveillance cameras has been increasing. Accordingly, we analyzed the performance of face recognition according to distance using PCA-based face recognition and interpolation. In this paper, we used Nearest, Bilinear, Bicubic, Lanczos3 interpolations to interpolate face image. As a result, we confirmed that existing interpolation have an few effect on performance of PCA-based face recognition and performance of PCA-based face recognition is improved by including face image according to distance in traning data.

The surveillance system has been developed to be intelligent which can judge and cope by itself using human recognition technique. The existing face recognition is excellent at a short distance but recognition rate is reduced at a long distance. In this paper, we analyze the performance of face recognition according to interpolation and face recognition algorithm in face recognition using the multiple distance face images to training. we use the nearest neighbor, bilinear, bicubic, Lanczos3 interpolations to interpolate face image and PCA and LDA to face recognition. The experimental results show that LDA-based face recognition with bilinear interpolation provides performance in face recognition.

최근 CCTV 출입 기록, 휴대폰 보안, 스마트 매장 등에서 얼굴 인식을 통해 개인을 식별하는 기술이 널리 사용되고 있다. 카메라의 각도, 조명, 사람의 움직임 등 얼굴 인식에 많은 외부 환경이 영향을 미치고 있지만 그중에서도 실제 영상에서 얼굴이 차지하는 영역이 작아 저해상도 얼굴 인식에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 본 논문에서는 이미지 해상도가 얼굴 인식에 끼치는 영향을 알아보고 이미지 초해상화를 통해 얼굴 인식 성능을 개선하고자 한다. 쌍선형, 양3차 회선 보간법과 딥러닝 기반의 이미지 초해상화 모델인 RCAN을 이용하여 업스케일링한 데이터셋에 대해 학습한 ArcFace를 통해 얼굴 검증 평가를 진행하였다. 고해상도 이미지는 얼굴 인식 성능을 향상시키며, RCAN을 사용한 이미지 초해상화가 보간법을 사용한 방법보다 더 좋은 성능을 보였다.

Image magnification is among the basic image processing operations. The most commonly used technique for image magnification are based on interpolation method(such as nearest neighbor, bilinear and cubic interpolation). However, the magnified images produced by the techniques that often appear a variety of undesirable image artifacts such as 'blocking' and 'blurring' or too takes the processing time into the several processing for image magnification. In this paper, we propose image magnification method which uses input image's sub-band information such as edge information to enhance the image magnification method. We use the whole image and not use the one's neighborhood pixels to detect the edge information of the image that isn't occurred the blocking phenomenon. And then we emphasized edge information to remove the blurring phenomenon which incited of edge information. Our method, which improves the performance of the traditional image magnification methods in the processing time, is presented. Experiment results show that the proposed method solves the drawbacks of the image magnification such as blocking and blurring phenomenon, and has a higher PSNR and Correlation than the traditional methods.

In this paper, we present an upsampling technique for depth map image using selective bilateral weights and a color weight using laplacian function. These techniques prevent color texture copy problem, which problem appears in existing upsamplers uses bilateral weight. First, we construct a high-resolution image using the bicubic interpolation technique. Next, we detect a color texture region using pixel value differences of depth and color image. If an interpolated pixel belongs to the color texture edge region, we calculate weighting values of spatial and depth in $3{\times}3$ neighboring pixels and compute the cost value to determine the boundary pixel value. Otherwise we use color weight instead of depth weight. Finally, the pixel value having minimum cost is determined as the pixel value of the high-resolution depth image. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves good performance in terns of PSNR comparison and subjective visual quality.
