ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a method for image resolution enhancement, which utilizes a fuzzy analysis system simulating the human vision system and uses the neural network as a basis for digital image interpolation. After an original image is inputted in, the image analysis module will divide and classify the original image, and then each of the image being classified will be processed by either the bilinear interpolation or the neural network interpolation. Because the fuzzy analysis system is configured according to the human vision system, and because the neural network is a model obtained from learning real natural images, the vision effect of the image enlarged through the processing method of the invention is very close to the real natural image.
