Abstract
Most current digital imaging technologies are based on Bayer color filter array and interpolation algorithms to achieve color image restoration. Common interpolation algorithms include bilinear interpolation algorithm, edge-directed image interpolation algorithm, and so on. Hibbard algorithm, a kind of edge-directed image interpolation algorithm, significantly improves zipper effect and blurred edges through a gradient-based method and constant chromatic aberration ideas compared with the bilinear interpolation algorithm. However, it only considers the possibility of horizontal and vertical edges, ignoring further judgement for edges in other directions. For solving the severe problems, we propose an oblique interpolation algorithm with the addition of oblique direction gradient factors. In this way, we consider the edges in both main diagonal and sub-diagonal directions. The adjacent pixel information in these directions is used to restore the red and blue channels. The experimental results show that images reconstructed by our algorithm are closer to original images. The reconstructed images have a certain improvement on the sharpness and coherence of oblique edges and arc edges. And the problem of false color in edges with an obvious color difference on both sides is weakened.
