Image Resolution Enhancement Using Lifting Wavelet and Stationary Wavelet Transform

This paper proposes a technique to enhance the resolution of images using lifting wavelet transform and stationary wavelet transform. The input low resolution image is decomposed using lifting wavelet transform to generate high frequency sub-bands, which are then interpolated. Stationary wavelet transform is used to enhance edges, and different high frequency sub-bands from it are added to correct the estimated high frequency sub-bands. The low resolution image is also interpolated in parallel. All sub-bands and the estimated high resolution image are then reconstructed using inverse lifting wavelet transform to produce the final high resolution image. Quantitative and visual results demonstrate the superiority of this proposed method over conventional and state-of-the-art techniques.

IMAGE RESOLUTION ENHANCEMENT USING LIFTING WAVELET

AND STATIONARY WAVELET TRANSFORM

Abstract:
This paper presents a technique for enhancing resolution of images by
interpolating high frequency sub-bands generated using lifting wavelet transform
(LWT) and spatial information of input low resolution (LR) image. Stationary
wavelet transform (SWT) is used at intermediate stage for edge enhancement. The
input image is decomposed using LWT in order to generate high frequency (HF)
sub-bands. The generated HF sub-bands are interpolated further. Different high
frequency sub-bands obtained through SWT are added to correct the estimated HF
sub-bands. The input LR image is interpolated in parallel. All these sub-bands and
estimated LR image are reconstructed by inverse lifting wavelet transformation
(ILWT) to produce high resolution image. The qualitative, quantitative and visual
images of the described technique show the superiority of the proposed method
over conventional and state-of-the-art methods.
