Abstract

The invention provide an image interpolation device and method, an image reading device. The image interpolation device comprises a data storage section (2) for storing the data in the vicinity of a missing pixel, a filter interpolation section (3) for performing inner product computation of the data output from the data storage section, a limiter processing section (4) for limiting the data output from the filter interpolation section within the storage range of the data storage section, and an interpolation data insertion section (5) for interpolating the data output from the limiter processing section into a position corresponding to the missing pixel of the data output from the data storage section. The image interpolation device is capable of increasing the interpolation accuracy of the missing pixel, especially the interpolation accuracy in interpolating the readout data of a manuscript copy including the cyclic data.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image interpolation device for interpolating pixels when an image is missing for some reason when an original is digitally read using a scanner, facsimile machine, copier, etc. An image interpolation device and method for interpolating pixels at a connection point of an IC. The close-contact image sensor has a plurality of sensor IC chips arranged in a line, and the sensor IC chip has a plurality of imaging elements arranged in a line. Background technique [0002] As a conventional image interpolation device used in such a case as described above, there are devices that calculate interpolation data of a missing pixel using methods such as: a method of using the average value of pixels adjacent to the missing pixel as interpolation data; using a least square method A method of obtaining a regression line of pixels adjacent to the missing pixel, and calculating interpolation data based on the regression line; a method...
