MLP interpolation for digital image processing using wavelet transform

We present nonlinear interpolation schemes for image resolution enhancement. The multilayer perceptron (MLP) interpolation schemes based on the wavelet transform and subband filtering are proposed. Because estimating each subimage signal is more effective than estimating the whole image signal, pixels in the low-resolution image are used as the input signal of the MLP to estimate all of the wavelet subimage of the corresponding high-resolution image. The image of increased resolution is finally produced by the synthesis procedure of the wavelet transform. As compared with other popular methods, the results show that the improvement is remarkable
