摘要: 针对低分辨率、低质量人脸图像的超分辨率重建问题,提出了一种基于K近邻稀疏编码均值约束的人脸超分辨率算法。首先,根据人脸块位置先验信息,对训练样本图像块进行聚类,得到与输入人脸图像块位置一致的高、低分辨率稀疏表示字典对;然后,利用低分辨率字典,在稀疏和K近邻稀疏编码均值的共同约束下实现低分辨率图像块的稀疏表示;最后,通过系数映射,结合高分辨率字典实现高分辨率图像块重建,最终将所有高分辨率图像块进行交叠平均得到高分辨率人脸图像。实验结果验证了算法的有效性及先进性。本方法在保持重建人脸图像相似度的基础上,改善了人脸图像的清晰度,提高了超分辨率图像的质量。

Abstract: A novel sparse representation based super-resolution(SR) method was proposed to reconstruct a high resolution(HR) face image from a low resolution(LR) observation via training samples.First,a specific LR and HR over-complete dictionary pair was learned for a certain patch over the patches in all training samples with the same position.Second,K Nearest Neighbor(KNN) sparse coding mean constrain was used to make the sparse representation of the input patch more accurate.Third,the HR patch was hallucinated via the sparse representation coefficients and the HR dictionary.At last,we formed the final HR face image by integrating the hallucinated HR patches together.Experiments validate the proposed method in extensive data.Compared to some state-of-the-art methods,our method exhibits better performance both in subjective and objective quality.
