Besides, AFI system requires bulk data transmission with no time delay. Existing colour recovery algorithms focus more on green(G) channel, overlooking R and B channels. Although the state-of-art demosaicing algorithms can perform well in colour recovery, they often have high computational cost and high hardware requirements. We propose an efficient interpolation algorithm with low complexity to solve the problem. When calculating R and B channel values, we innovatively propose the diagonal direction to select the interpolation direction, and apply colour difference law to make full use of the correlation between colour channels. The experimental results show that the peak signal-to-noise ratios(PSNRs)of G, R and B channels reach 37.54, 37.40 and 38.22 dB, respectively, which shows good performance in recovery of R and B channels. In conclusion, the algorithm proposed in this paper can be used as an alternative to the existing demosaicing algorithms for AFI system.展开更多

Different from traditional fusion schemes, the raw Bayer pattern images are fused before colorrestoration. Therefore, the Bayer image restoration operation is only performed one time. Thus, the proposed algorithm is moreefficient than traditional fusion schemes. In detail, a clarity measurement of Bayer pattern image is defined for raw Bayer patternimages, and the fusion operator is performed on superpixels which provide powerful grouping cues of local image feature. Theraw images are merged with refined weight map to get the fused Bayer pattern image, which is restored by the demosaicingalgorithm to get the full resolution color image. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can obtain betterfused results with more natural appearance and fewer artifacts than the traditional algorithms.展开更多
