Abstract
Various techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide image resolution enhancement. For example, a method includes: receiving an original image (e.g., a visible light image) of a scene comprising image pixels identified by pixel coordinates; resizing the original image to a larger size, where the resized image is divided into a first plurality of reference blocks; enhancing a resolution of the resized image by iteratively: injecting high frequency data into the resized image, extracting from the resized image a first plurality of matching blocks that meet a mutual similarity condition with respect to the reference block, and adjusting the high frequency data of the reference block based on a correlation between the reference block and the first plurality of matching blocks. A system configured to perform such a method is also disclosed.
