    摘要: A method for enhancing quality of an image comprises deriving from an initial low-resolution image (LRI) an initial high-resolution image (IHRI) by upsampling (S2, S3), providing (S4), based on the initial low-resolution image (LRI), at least one downsampled filtered image (AIij, AIi′j′) with lower resolution, providing (S6), based on the initial low-resolution image (LRI), an unfiltered image (LRI, UIi′j′) having same resolution as the downsampled filtered image, selecting a patch (PI) from the initial high-resolution image (IHRI), finding (S8) filial patches (PA k) similar to the selected patch in the downsampled filtered image (AIij, AIi′j′), finding, in the unfiltered image (LRI, UIi′j′), parent patches (PPk) locally associated to the filial patches (PAk), and linearly combining (S14) the parent patches (PPk) to form an enhanced quality patch (EP). Finally, enhanced quality patches (EP) obtained by repeatedly carrying out above steps are combined (S15) to form an enhanced quality high-resolution image (EIp).

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for processing a video sequence formed by at least two video images, said method comprising: obtaining said at least two video images using a first capture module with a first field of view, each video image representing a same scene captured at different instants or from different points of view, wherein said method comprises: determining luminance information from at least one overall image obtained by a second capture module with a second field of view greater than said first field of view, said overall image representing the scene captured at different instants or from different points of view, down-converting a dynamic range of said video images taking into account said luminance information.

    摘要: A method for coding a block of pixels is disclosed. The method for coding comprises: calculating a block of residues from the pixel block and a prediction block, transforming the block of residues into a block of coefficients with a transform defined by a set of basis functions, coding the block of coefficients, The method comprises, before the transformation step, a step for rephasing basis functions from residues calculated in a causal neighbourhood of the pixel block. The transformation step uses the rephased basis functions.

    摘要: A method for constructing an epitome from an image divided into non overlapping blocks is disclosed. The method comprises: determining, for each block, similar patches in the image, a similar patch being a patch with similar content; constructing at least one epitome chart for the picture from the similar patches; wherein determining, for each block, similar patches in the image comprises: a) determining, for each current block, similar blocks in the image, a similar block being a block with content similar to the content of the current block; b) determining, for one current block and for the similar blocks determined for the current block, similar patches in the image, a similar patch being a patch with content similar to the content of the current block; c) repeating step b) for a next current block for which no similar patch is determined until at least one similar patch is determined for each block in the image.
