Abstract
A method and apparatus for reconstructing a low-resolution image is provided. The method includes magnifying a low-resolution image; extracting a high frequency component and a texture component from the pre-magnification low-resolution image; and reconstructing an image by synthesizing the extracted high frequency component and texture component with the magnified low-resolution image. The method and apparatus synthesizes only image components without a separate external DB, making it possible to enhance sharpness of the outline of images and thus effectively reconstruct fine texture components.
