Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes: a representative value calculation unit that selects a designation area from a first image, and that calculates a representative value of each of the color components in the designation area, a class classification unit that performs class classification on the designation area, a coefficient reading unit that reads a coefficient that is stored in advance, a color component conversion unit that sets the pixel value relating to a predetermined pixel within the designation area to be a prediction tap, sets the pixel value of one color component, to be a reference, and converts the pixel value of each color component into a conversion value, and a product and sum calculation unit that sets the conversion value to be a variable and calculates each of the pixel values of a second image, by performing product and sum calculation which uses the coefficient which is read.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for increasing resolution of video images are disclosed. Vectors may be produced based on a sequence of video frames. Low dimensional vectors may be produced from the vectors. Groups of at least two of the low dimensional vectors may be interpolated to produce respective low dimensional interpolated vectors. Each of the low dimensional vectors and the interpolated low dimensional vectors may be mapped, according to a model, to obtain dimensionally increased image information. Aspects of the image information may be included in corresponding video frames and corresponding interpolated video frames.
