An image enhancement tool: Pattern Recognition Image Augmented Resolution

Аннотация

PRIAR (Pattern Recognition Image Augmented Resolution) is an innovative approach to singleframe super-resolution that combines common single-frame super-resolution with pattern-recognition algorithms. PRIAR uses the information gained through pattern-recognition to enhance resolution for low quality images, and to allow the end user to explore, recognize and super-resolve low-resolution images. In this paper, we present the basic functionality of the PRIAR algorithm that we have implemented. The program is modular and each module is easily combined. In addition, such modularity permits us to work on images where single modules can be changed in order to resolve different classes of problems. In this paper, we firstly present the features of the PRIAR program processing images reproducing animal cells recorded with a scanning probe microscope.
