Abstract
Embodiments relate to demosaicing a raw image into a full-resolution green pixels and using high-frequency components of the full-resolution green pixels to add details into red image pixels and blue image pixels. The full-resolution green pixels are generated by interpolating green pixels in the raw image using residual weights based on correlation between green pixels and non-green pixels along different directions, and then combining the green pixel values interpolated along different directions using weights derived from gradient information. The full-resolution red and blue pixels are generated by determining weights according to the correlation of interpolated red and blue pixels relative to the full-resolution green pixels, and adding the high-frequency components of the full-resolution green pixels to the interpolated red and blue pixels.
