Abstract

In this paper, a novel method of blind Super-Resolution (SR) image restoration is presented. First, a learning based blur identification method is proposed to identify the blur parameter in which Sobel operator and Vector Quantization (VQ) are used for extracting feature vectors. Then a super-resolution image is reconstructed by a new hybrid MAP/POCS method where the data fidelity term is minimized by l1 norm and regularization term is defined on the high frequency sub-bands offered by Stationary Wavelet Transform (SWT) to incorporate the smoothness of the discontinuity field. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of our method.
