International audienceThe aim of a Super Resolution (SR) technique is to construct a high-resolution image from a sequence of observed low-resolution ones of the same scene. One major roadblock of an SR reconstitution is removing noise and blur without destroying edges. We propose a novel multiframe image SR algorithm based on a convex combination of Bilateral Total Variation and a non-smooth second order variational regulariza-tion, using a controlled weighting parameter. We prove the existence of a minimizer of the proposed SR model in the space of functions of bounded Hessian, and we confirm the success of this approach in avoiding undesirable artifacts. The simulation results show the efficient performance of the proposed algorithm compared to other methods in the literature using two criteria, PSNR and SSIM
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
