More Info ...Abstract Image sequence superresolution algorithms estimate a high-resolution image with finer spectral details from multiple low-resolution observations degraded by blur, noise and undersampling. The major advantage of this approach is practicality and cost reduction by applying technical devices in signal processing and mathematical analysis on the images acquired by a low-resolution imaging system which, possibly, could be a video-camera, a prefabricated multisensor array, a vibrating camera, a low-resolution scanning electron microscope or a matrix of optoelectronic sensors, among others. The dynamism in this area of research is substantiated by not only the voluminous past activity within a reasonably short time span but also the realized need to meet many other remaining challenges. The aim of this seminar is to provide a technical snapshot of developments to date and introduce promising new developments in both the theory and applications of sequence superresolution imaging science and technology, including the most recent use of second generation wavelets for the purpose.
