An innovative face image enhancement based on principle component analysis

In this paper, we propose an innovative face hallucination approach based on principle component analysis (PCA) and residue technique. First, the relationship of projection coefficients between high-resolution and low-resolution images using PCA is investigated. Then based on this analysis, a high r...

description In this paper, we propose an innovative face hallucination approach based on principle component analysis (PCA) and residue technique. First, the relationship of projection coefficients between high-resolution and low-resolution images using PCA is investigated. Then based on this analysis, a high resolution global face image is constructed from a low resolution one. Next a high-resolution residue is derived based on the similarity between the projections on high and low resolution residue training sets. Finally by combining the global face and residue in high resolution, a high resolution face image is generated. Also the recursive and two-stage methods are proposed, which improve the results of face image enhancement. Extensive experiments validate the proposed approaches.
