Abstract

To reduce the cost of storage and size, most digital cameras capture images through a chip whose surface is covered with a color filter array (CFA) where each sensor only samples one of three original color values. To reconstruct a full image, an interpolation process, often called CFA demosaicking, is required to estimate the missing color values. In this paper, a new time-effective weighted interpolation method for CFA demosaicking is proposed. The new algorithm contains three consecutive steps: First, during the interpolation of green plane, the image is divided into three different regions where each of these is handled with different strategies. Second, four-directional weighted interpolation with gradient inverse weighted filtering (GIWF) refinement is utilized in filling the missing red and blue components. Finally, a postprocessing step with 2-dimensional finite impulse response (FIR) filter is used for further enhancement. An analysis of experimental results shows that the proposed algorithm inherits the good traits of edge preservation under lower time cost.
