Abstract
In a method of processing a super-resolution target image from a plurality of substantially low resolution auxiliary frames, the target image is partitioned into a plurality of adaptively sized blocks, which are sized based upon registration confidence levels of the blocks obtained from information contained in the plurality of auxiliary frames. The blocks are classified into a plurality of different categories according to one or both of their respective registration confidence levels and their respective variance levels. In addition, separate enhancement modes designed to enhance the blocks are selected according to their respective classifications and applied on the blocks to enhance the target image.
