Reconstruction algorithm of super-resolution infrared image based on human vision processing mechanism

Aiming at solving the problem of low resolution and visual blur in infrared imaging, a super-resolution infrared image reconstruction method using human vision processing mechanism(HVPM) was proposed. This method combined a mechanism of vision lateral inhibition with an algorithm projection onto convex sets(POCS)reconstruction, the improved vision lateral inhibition network was utilized to enhance the contrast between object and background of low-resolution image sequences,then POCS algorithm was adopted to reconstruct superresolution image. Experimental results showed that the proposed method can significantly improve the visual effect of image, whose contrast and information entropy of reconstructed infrared images were improved by approximately 5 times and 1.6 times compared with traditional POCS reconstruction algorithm, respectively.
