In this thesis, it is proposed to get the high definition color images by using super – resolution algorithms. Resolution enhancement of RGB, HSV and YIQ color domain images is presented. In this study, three solution methods are presented to improve the resolution of HSV color domain images. These solution methods are suggested to beat the color artifacts on super resolution image and decrease the computational complexity in HSV domain applications. PSNR values are measured and compared with the results of other two color domain experiments. In RGB color space, super – resolution algorithms are applied three color channels (R, G, B) separately and PSNR values are measured. In YIQ color domain, only Y channel is processed with super resolution algorithms because Y channel is luminance component of the image and it is the most important channel to improve the resolution of the image in YIQ color domain. Also, the third solution method suggested for HSV color domain offers applying super resolution algorithm to only value channel. Hence, value channel carry brightness data of the image. The results are compared with the YIQ color domain experiments. During the experiments, four different super resolution algorithms are used that are Direct Addition, MAP, POCS and IBP. Although, these methods are widely used reconstruction of monochrome images, here they are used for resolution enhancement of color images. Color super resolution performances of these algorithms are tested.

An Investigation on hyperspectral image classifiers for remote sensing
Özdemir, Okan Bilge; Çetin, Yasemin; Department of Information Systems (2013)
Hyperspectral image processing is improved by the capabilities of multispectral image processing with high spectral resolution. In this thesis, we explored hyperspectral classification with Support Vector Machines (SVM), Maximum Likelihood (ML) and KNearest Neighborhood algorithms. We analyzed the effect of training data on classification accuracy. For this purpose, we implemented three different training data selection methods; first N sample selection, randomly N sample selection and uniformly N sample se...
A Gamut-Mapping Framework for Color-Accurate Reproduction of HDR Images
SİKUDOVA, Elena; POULİ, Tania; ARTUSİ, Alessandro; Akyüz, Ahmet Oğuz; BANTERLE, Francesco; Mazlumoglu, Zeynep Miray; REİNHARD, Erik (2016-07-01)
An integrated gamut- and tone-management framework for color-accurate reproduction of high dynamic range images can prevent hue and luminance shifts while taking gamut boundaries into consideration. The proposed approach is conceptually and computationally simple, parameter-free, and compatible with existing tone-mapping operators.
Image fusion for improving spatial resolution of multispectral satellite images
Ünlüsoy, Deniz; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi; Department of Geological Engineering (2013)
In this study, four different image fusion techniques have been applied to high spectral and low spatial resolution satellite images with high spatial and low spectral resolution images to obtain fused images with increased spatial resolution, while preserving spectral information as much as possible. These techniques are intensity-hue-saturation (IHS) transform, principle component analysis (PCA), Brovey transform (BT), and Wavelet transform (WT) image fusion. Images used in the study belong to Çankırı reg...
A MEMS Based Lens Microscanner for Resolution Enhancement of Infrared Imaging Systems
Sozak, Ahmet; Simsek, Ertug; Azgın, Kıvanç (2019-01-01)
The aim of this study is to demonstrate a Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) based in-plane (x and y axes) lens scanner to improve the resolution of Long Wave Infrared Optical Systems (8-12 mu m wavelength). The proposed actuator consists of a 2 axis decoupled stage and has 4 separate V-Shaped (Chevron) thermal actuators which provide sufficient force and displacement to position the lens within required time. Miniaturization of lens has been achieved by using an aspherical surface and optimization of ...
Bayesian multi frame super resolution
Turgay, Emre; Akar, Gözde; Akar, Nail; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
This thesis aims at increasing the effective resolution of an image using a set of low resolution images. This process is referred to as super resolution (SR) image reconstruction in the literature. This work proposes maximum a-posteriori (MAP) based iterative reconstruction methods for this problem. The first contribution of the thesis is a novel edge preserving SR image reconstruction method. The proposed MAP based estimator uses local gradient direction and amplitude for optimal noise reduction while prese...
