Abstract

The invention provides a method of using natural image prior-knowledge for multi-image super-resolution reconstruction. According to the method, a fields-of-experts model obtained by learning is introduced to be used as the natural image prior-knowledge in a process of using a series of low-resolution images for super-resolution reconstruction, and quality of multi-image super-resolution reconstruction is improved. Compared with prior knowledge of L1-norm, total variation and the like used by traditional Bayesian multi-image super-resolution methods, the natural image prior-knowledge used in the method is the fields-of-experts model obtained through training of an image database, and can better extract statistical features of natural scenes, and thus obtain better super-resolution reconstruction effects. The method simplifies partial processes of multi-image super-resolution, and shortens calculation time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of image processing, and in particular relates to a method for super-resolution reconstruction of multi-frame images by using prior knowledge of natural images. Background technique [0002] Image super-resolution (Super Resolution) reconstruction technology is a technology that uses digital image processing algorithms to restore details lost in the imaging process and improve image resolution. At present, image super-resolution reconstruction is mainly divided into two fields: single-frame image super-resolution reconstruction and multi-frame image super-resolution reconstruction. Multi-frame image super-resolution reconstruction uses the complementary information between multiple frames of low-resolution images to reconstruct images. On the premise that multiple frames of images can be obtained, multi-frame image super-resolution can achieve better results. [0003] Among the methods of multi-frame image super-res...
