As the color filter array (CFA)2.0, the RGBW CFA pattern, in which each CFA pixel contains only one R, G, B, or W color value, provides more luminance information than the Bayer CFA pattern. Demosaicking RGBW CFA images I R G B W is necessary in order to provide high-quality RGB full-color images as the target images for human perception. In this letter, we propose a three-stage demosaicking method for I R G B W . In the first-stage, a cross shape-based color difference approach is proposed in order to interpolate the missing W color pixels in the W color plane of I R G B W . In the second stage, an iterative error compensation-based demosaicking process is proposed to improve the quality of the demosaiced RGB full-color image. In the third stage, taking the input image I R G B W as the ground truth RGBW CFA image, an I R G B W -based refinement process is proposed to refine the quality of the demosaiced image obtained by the second stage. Based on the testing RGBW images that were collected from the Kodak and IMAX datasets, the comprehensive experimental results illustrated that the proposed three-stage demosaicking method achieves substantial quality and perceptual effect improvement relative to the previous method by Hamilton and Compton and the two state-of-the-art methods, Kwan et al.’s pansharpening-based method, and Kwan and Chou’s deep learning-based method.
In this paper, we rst propose a fast and eective region-based depth map upsampling method, and then propose a joint upsampling and location map-free reversible data hiding method, simpled called the JUR method. In the proposed upsampling method, all the missing depth pixels are partitioned into three disjoint regions: the homogeneous, semi-homogeneous, and non- homogeneous regions. Then, we propose the depth copying, mean value, and bicubic interpolation approaches to reconstruct the three kinds of missing depth pixels quickly, respectively. In the proposed JUR method, without any location map overhead, using the neighboring ground truth depth pixels of each missing depth pixel, achieving substantial quality, and embedding capacity merits. The comprehensive experiments have been carried out to not only justify the execution-time and quality merits of the upsampled depth maps by our upsampling method relative to the state-of-the-art methods, but also justify the embedding capacity and quality merits of our JUR method when compared with the state-of-the-art methods.
