A demand in real-time applications for superresolution increases as the surveillance and low resolution camera usage is spread for cost optimization. In this thesis two real-time superresolution algorithms have been proposed. The first algorithm (NDUID) is composed of non-dyadic upsampling cascade for smooth interpolation and an edge enhancement block that uses a non-blind deconvolution. Second algorithm (EDAT) starts with Total Variation decomposition. The structure component is interpolated with a fast edge adaptive interpolation and the edges are enhanced using a shock filter. Texture channel only upsampled by bicubic interpolation. The EDAT is also implemented on a Spartan 3A DSP FPGA to demonstrate the results on a real application. Experimental results show that implemented algorithm is capable of upsampling 320x240 resolution images by a factor of two at 52 fps with better quality than other real-time algorithms.

Design and implementation of a novel visual analysis system for image clasiffication
Altintakan, Ümit Lütfü; Yazıcı, Adnan; Körpeoğlu, İbrahim; Department of Computer Engineering (2013)
Possibilities offered by the technology to create, share and disseminate image and video data have resulted in a rapid increase in the available visual data. However, the data is useless unless it is effectively accessed, which necessitates the semantic analysis of visual data. In this dissertation, we present a novel visual analysis system along with its application to image classification problem. We aim to address the challenges in the area originated from the semantic gap, and to facilitate the research...
Camera electronics and image enhancement software for infrared detector arrays
Küçükkömürler, Alper; Akın, Tayfun; Department of Environmental Engineering (2012)
This thesis aims to design and develop camera electronics and image enhancement software for infrared detector arrays. It first discusses the camera electronics suitable for infrared detector arrays, then it concentrates on image enhancement software that are implemented including defective pixel correction, contrast enhancement, noise reduction and pseudo coloring. After that, testing and results of the implemented algorithms were presented. Camera electronics and circuit operation frequency are selected c...
Directional coding of backward compatible high dynamic range (HDR) image coding residues
Feyiz, Kutan; Kamışlı, Fatih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018)
High dynamic range (HDR) image and video formats are proposed to overcome limitations of widely accepted standard 8-bit low dynamic range (LDR) image and video representations. The main aim of these formats is to encode the whole luminance range of real world scenes which changes from extreme darkness ( 10 − 6 cd/ m 2 ) to bright sunshine ( 10 8 cd/ m 2 ), and to generate and store such scenes independent from the display technology. To achieve a successful transition from LDR to HDR technology, backward ...
Real-time FPGA firmware for VGA resolution infrared camera
Çevik, Kami; Akın, Tayfun; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2019)
Infrared cameras generally require pre-processing on raw image data in order to improve the output image quality. Raw output of the infrared cameras occupies a narrow part of the available dynamic range. Contrast enhancement is one of the pre-processing operations and used for improving dynamic range of the low contrast images. This thesis proposes an adaptive histogram equalization method for enhancing the contrast of long wavelength infrared camera output with 640×480 resolution and provides a FPGA implem...
Visibility grid method for efficient crowd rendering wirh shadows
Koçdemir, Şahin Serdar; İşler, Veysi; Department of Modeling and Simulation (2012)
Virtual crowd rendering have been used in film industry with offine rendering methods for a long time. But its existence in interactive real-time applications such as video games is not so common due to the limited rendering power of current graphics hardware. This thesis describes a novel method to improve shadow mapping performance of a crowded scene by taking into account the screen space visibility of the casted shadow of a crowd instance when rendering the shadow maps. A grid-based visibility mask crea...
