A new method for superresolution image reconstruction based on surveying adjustment method is described in this paper. The main idea of such new method is that a sequence of low-resolution images are taken firstly as observations, and then observation equations are established for the superresolution image reconstruction. The gray function of the object surface can be found by using surveying adjustment method from the observation equations. High-resolution pixel value of the corresponding area can be calculated by using the gray function. The results show that the proposed algorithm converges much faster than that of conventional superresolution image reconstruction method. By using the new method, the visual feeling of reconstructed image can be greatly improved compared to that of iterative back projection algorithm, and its peak signal-to-noise ratio can also be improved by nearly 1 dB higher than the projection onto convex sets algorithm. Furthermore, this method can successfully avoid the ill-posed problems in reconstruction process.

A fast image reconstruction method for Image Compression method based on Fuzzy relational equation (ICF) and soft computing is proposed. In experiments using 20 images (Standard Image DataBAse), the decrease in image reconstruction time to 1/132.02 and 1/382.29 are obtained when the compression rate is 0.0156 and 0.0625, respectively, and the proposed method outperforms the conventional one in the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR). ICF using nonuniform coders over YUV color space is proposed in order to achieve effective compression. Linear quantization of compressed image data is introduced in order to improve the compression rate. Through experiments using 100 typical images (Corel Gallery, Arizona Directory), PSNR increases at 7.9-14.1% compared with the conventional method under the condition that compression rates are 0.0234-0.0938.

In this paper, we use Frame Theory to develop a generalized OCT image reconstruction method using redundant and non-uniformly spaced frequency domain samples that includes using non-redundant and uniformly spaced samples as special cases. We also correct an important theoretical error in the previously reported results related to OCT image reconstruction using the Non-uniform Discrete Fourier Transform (NDFT). Moreover, we describe an efficient method to compute our corrected reconstruction transform, i.e., a scaled NDFT, using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Finally, we demonstrate different advantages of our generalized OCT image reconstruction method by achieving (1) theoretically corrected OCT image reconstruction directly from non-uniformly spaced frequency domain samples; (2) a novel OCT image reconstruction method with a higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) using redundant frequency domain samples. Our new image reconstruction method is an improvement of OCT technology, so it could benefit all OCT applications.

The aliasing due to subsampling and the blur from the finite detector size can decrease quality of the images and make fine details and structures difficult to interpret. High resolution images can be reconstructed from several adjacent frames in a sequence by reconstruction process. This paper describes the high resolution image reconstruction method based on wavelet domain. In this approach both the image sequences and the degradation operator are presented by orthogonal wavelet with compact support. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is effective to improve image details.

Background: Image reconstruction of magnetic induction tomography (MIT) is a typical ill-posed inverse problem, which means that the measurements are always far from enough. Thus, MIT image reconstruction results using conventional algorithms such as linear back projection and Landweber often suffer from limitations such as low resolution and blurred edges. Methods: In this paper, based on the recent finite rate of innovation (FRI) framework, a novel image reconstruction method with MIT system is presented. Results: This is achieved through modeling and sampling the MIT signals in FRI framework, resulting in a few new measurements, namely, fourier coefficients. Because each new measurement contains all the pixel position and conductivity information of the dense phase medium, the illposed inverse problem can be improved, by rebuilding the MIT measurement equation with the measurement voltage and the new measurements. Finally, a sparsity-based signal reconstruction algorithm is presented to reconstruct the original MIT image signal, by solving this new measurement equation. Conclusion: Experiments show that the proposed method has better indicators such as image error and correlation coefficient. Therefore, it is a kind of MIT image reconstruction method with high accuracy.
