Multispectral Demosaicing Based on Iterative-Linear-Regression Model for Estimating Pseudo-Panchromatic Image

This paper proposes a method for demosaicing raw images captured by multispectral cameras. The proposed method estimates a pseudo-panchromatic image (PPI) via an iterative-linear-regression model and utilizes the estimated PPI for multispectral demosaicing. The PPI is estimated through horizontal an...

description This paper proposes a method for demosaicing raw images captured by multispectral cameras. The proposed method estimates a pseudo-panchromatic image (PPI) via an iterative-linear-regression model and utilizes the estimated PPI for multispectral demosaicing. The PPI is estimated through horizontal and vertical guided filtering, with the subsampled multispectral-filter-array-(MSFA) image and low-pass-filtered MSFA as the guide image and filtering input, respectively. The number of iterations is automatically determined according to a predetermined criterion. Spectral differences between the estimated PPI and MSFA are calculated for each channel, and each spectral difference is interpolated using directional interpolation. The weights are calculated from the estimated PPI, and each interpolated spectral difference is combined using the weighted sum. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method outperforms the State-of-the-Art methods with regard to spatial and spectral fidelity for both synthetic and real-world images.
