ABSTRACT
In this paper, texton substitution is implemented by graphics hardware to achieve super resolution of a video stream in realtime processing. The texton substitution method was proposed previously and evaluated for the super resolution of still images, and the textons were defined in wavelet space. In this paper, the wavelet transformation was accelerated by the graphics hardware [Hopf et al. 2001]], followed by two-dimensional filtering of three layers to produce a 10-dimensional vector of the texture at each pixel. The obtained textons were classified into a cluster based on the tree-based clustering technique by the graphics hardware using the pixel shader. This system was applied to the video stream of a face, and the experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed system.

Video super-resolution using texton substitution
SIGGRAPH '07: ACM SIGGRAPH 2007 postersA video camera produces an image sequence with a specific frame rate (e.g. 30 frames per second). This imposes limits on the spatial resolution due to limited bandwidth. Image interpolation, such as bi-cubic interpolation, can increase the resolution, ...
Image super-resolution: use of self-learning and gabor prior
ACCV'12: Proceedings of the 11th Asian conference on Computer Vision - Volume Part IIIRecent approaches on single image super-resolution (SR) have attempted to exploit self-similarity to avoid the use of multiple images. In this paper, we propose an SR method based on self-learning and Gabor prior. Given a low resolution (LR) test image ...
An FPGA-based design for real-time Super Resolution Reconstruction
ICDSC '18: Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Distributed Smart CamerasSince several decades, the camera spatial resolution is gradually increasing with the CMOS technology evolution. The image sensors provide more and more pixels, generating new constraints for the suitable optics. As an alternative, promising solutions ...
