AN Edge Enhancement Algorithm Using a Polynomial Transformation
F. Fonsalas, J. Lejard · IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics · 1986
The paper describes a new algorithm proposed for improving the subjective quality of picture by means of contour enhancement. The method applies on digitalized pictures. The algorithm is based on a transient detection scheme followed by a polunomial transformation. The possibility of choosing a specific polynomial makes this new method useful for various applications, such as chrominance contour improvement on television pictures or edge enhancement for picture coding.
