摘要:In this paper, three new algorithms have been proposed for resolution enhancement of different gray scale images. These algorithms were based on dual tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT). Firstly, a reference image was converted to low resolution image. In the next step, this low resolution image was decomposed using DTCWT. Due to that, high sub-band and low sub-band images had been generated. High sub-band image was further processed for sharpness enhancement. Gaussian filter and Fast non local mean (NLM) filter were further used for generating super-resolution image. Contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) was also used in two of the proposed algorithms. Results were simulated on MATLAB software. Qualitative analysis proves that the visual quality of the input image is improved. Quantitative analysis was also carried out in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR). The simulation results show that proposed algorithms are better than existing ones.
