ABSTRACT
We propose a novel super-resolution (SR) framework based on a sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) method, which is capable of robust optimization, for solving the inverse problem of degradation processes of imagery and sampling. The SR image is estimated from a set of multiple hypotheses, which are sequentially reorganized by evaluating their consistency with the input image. The concepts of norm regularization and motion registration in single/multi-frame SR are mapped into stochastic processes of an SMC's proposal distribution. The experiments showed that our framework is capable of seamlessly restoring both static and moving regions of degraded pictures.

A new denoising model for multi-frame super-resolution image reconstruction
Multi-frame image super-resolution (SR) aims to combine the sub-pixel information from a sequence of low-resolution (LR) images to build a high-resolution (HR) one. SR techniques usually suffers from annoying restoration artifacts such as noise, jagged ...
