Abstract: This invention provides a method of sparse representation of contents of high-resolution video images which supports content editing and propagation. It mainly comprises five steps which are: (1) to input the original images or videos of high resolution to summarize the characteristic information of their pixels; (2) to acquire the highly sparse samples of the original images or videos through the sparse representation technique; (3) to reconstruct each pixel of the input images or videos with a small number of the original sparse samples to calculate a coefficient of reconstruction; (4) to edit and propagate the original sparse samples to yield a result of new sparse samples; (5) to generate a result of final images or videos of high resolution according to the result of sparse samples and the coefficient of reconstruction. This invention only edits and propagates the highly sparse samples rather than all the information of pixels.
