Combination learning super-resolution method based on dual constraint

Abstract

The invention discloses a combination learning super-resolution method based on dual constraints, which mainly solves the problem of image blurring caused by the traditional neighborhood embedding super-resolution method. The combination learning super-resolution method based on the dual constraints comprises the following steps of: (1) generating a training set by using a high-resolution image and establishing a group block pair of a low-resolution image block and a high-resolution image block; (2) extracting an eigenvector of the low-resolution image block and searching the best matched group block pair in the training set; (3) jointly learning eigenvectors of the low-resolution image block and the high-resolution image block in the group block pair, constructing a projection matrix andgenerating a joint characteristic subspace; (4) estimating high-resolution image blocks by using the neighborhood embedding in the generated joint characteristic subspace; (5) synthesizing all the estimated high-resolution image blocks into a high-resolution image; and (6) improving the image quality of the synthetic high-resolution image by using global reconstructing constraints and a back projection algorithm. An experimental result indicates that the invention has stronger super-resolution ability and can be used for magnifying low-resolution natural images.
