Directional interpolation of images based on visual properties and rank order filtering
V. Ralph Algazi, Gary E. Ford, R. Potharlanka · 1991
The goal of this research is to develop interpolation techniques which preserve or enhance the local structure critical to image quality. Preliminary results are presented which exploit either the properties of vision or the properties of the image in order to achieve the goals. Directional image interpolation is considered which is based on a local analysis of the spatial image structure. The extension of techniques for the design of linear filters based on properties of human perception reported previously to enhance the perceived quality of interpolated images is considered.>
