Problems solved by technology

[0006] (2) The more important reason is x 0 The number of samples contained in is insufficient to correctly describe the mapping function f of the GPR
If the problem of insufficient samples is solved by simply extracting larger-sized image slices, it will lead to a long distance in the sample space from the same image slice, and the sample differences are too large to be described by the same mapping function

Embodiment 1

[0092] The existing GPR super-resolution reconstruction algorithm is independent from task to task, and does not consider the relationship between tasks, so for each task, only a noise level σ is used to describe its characteristics, which is often inaccurate. The present invention introduces the idea of ​​multi-task learning, not only using σ i To describe the noise level of each task, also use θ, The four parameters μ and ρ describe the commonality of tasks, and comprehensively utilize the commonality and differences between tasks to improve the accuracy of prediction.

[0093] The present invention proposes an image super-resolution reconstruction algorithm based on multi-task Gaussian process regression, the algorithm flow is as follows figure 2 As shown (wherein, the solid line arrow indicates the operation of the whole image, and the dotted line arrow indicates the operation for the image slice). image x 0 is the input image, Y 0 for X 0 The result of Gaussian lo...

Abstract

The invention discloses an image super-resolution reconstruction method based on multi-task Gaussian process regression. The method comprises the following steps of carrying out Gauss low-pass filtering and bicubic up-sampling on an input image to acquire a Gauss low-pass filtering image and a bicubic up-sampling image; according to any image sheet of super-resolution images to be acquired, using a nearest neighbor domain searching method to construct a training set of the image sheets; according to the constructed training set, using a multi-task Gaussian process regression model to carry out parameter training so as to obtain a parameter describing a common character and differences of a task; according to the multi-task Gaussian process regression model, predicting the image sheets to be acquired, acquiring each pixel point of the image sheets, and then making the image sheets slide on the super-resolution images to be acquired, carrying out prediction again and finally acquiring the super-resolution images. In the invention, through the nearest neighbor domain searching method, a problem of insufficient sample quantities is avoided and accuracy is possessed; an artifact phenomenon is effectively eliminated and image quality is increased. The method can be widely used in the image processing field.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of image processing, in particular to an image super-resolution reconstruction method based on multi-task Gaussian process regression. Background technique [0002] The super-resolution reconstruction of an image refers to obtaining a high-resolution result corresponding to an input single-frame image by means of software calculation. This technology is one of the important and basic operations in the field of image processing, and has a wide range of applications in high-definition display, intelligent monitoring and other fields. [0003] The traditional image super-resolution reconstruction algorithm based on Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) has a framework such as figure 1 shown, where X 0 is the input low-resolution image, X represents an unknown high-resolution image (that is, the high-resolution image to be sought), and the algorithm uses the self-similarity property of the image (this property refers to the...
