  • Method and apparatus for sharpening an image by scaling spatial residual components during image reconstruction
    Patent number: 5835637
    Abstract: A system that sharpens an image by scaling high frequency residual components of an image stored in decomposed base and residual format. The scaling of the residuals is performed as a high resolution image is being reconstructed from the base and residual images. The scaling is combined with residual decompression into a single table look-up operation.
