Perception-motivated Interpolation of Image Sequences


Perception-motivated Interpolation of Image Sequences

We present a method for image interpolation which is able to create

high-quality, perceptually convincing transitions between recorded images. By implementing concepts derived from human vision, the problem of a physically correct image interpolation is relaxed to an

image interpolation that is perceived as physically correct by human

observers. We find that it suffices to focus on exact edge correspondences, homogeneous regions and coherent motion to compute

such solutions. In our user study we confirm the visual quality of the proposed image interpolation approach. We show how each aspect of our approach increases the perceived quality of the interpolation results, compare the results obtained by other methods and investigate the achieved quality for different types of scenes.
