ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for expanding a source pixel in a digital image includes an edge direction detector detecting edge direction in the vicinity of the source pixel. An interpolator interpolates multiple sets of pixels in a region surrounding the source pixel in the detected edge direction to generate a set of output pixels representing an expansion of the source pixel. Methods and computer programs for expanding a source pixel in a digital image are also provided.
