Gaussian Noised Single - Image Super Resolution Reconstruction

A framework is proposed to reconstruct a super resolution image from a single low resolution image with Gaussian noise. The degrading processes of Gaussian blur, down-sampling, and Gaussian noise are all considered. For the low resolution image, the Gaussian noise is reduced through Wiener filtering algorithm. For the de-noised low resolution image, iterative back projection algorithm is used to reconstruct a super resolution image. Experiments show that de-noising plays an important part in single-image super resolution reconstruction. In the super reconstructed image, the Gaussian noise is reduced effectively and the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) is increased.
