Abstract

In an electronic color-imaging device, such as a digital camera, using a single CCD (Charge Coupled Device) sensor, the color information is usually acquired in sub-sampled patterns of Red (R), Green (G) and Blue (B) pixels. The methodology to recover or interpolate the missing color components is known as color demosaicing, a type of image interpolation.

Highlights

  • Due to the cost and packaging consideration, in digital imaging devices, such as the commercially available Digital Still Cameras (DSC), the image color is captured in a sub-sampled pattern

  • Each pixel in the captured raw image contains only one of the three primary color components, R (Red), G (Green), or B (Blue). This sub-sampled color image is generated using certain pattern of a Color Filter Array (CFA). This CFA is realized by coating the surface of the electronic sensor array or a single Charge Coupled Device (CCD) array using some optical material that acts as a band-pass filter

  • Bilinear algorithm gives better results than other non-adaptive methods and in some cases adaptive methods, as bilinear takes into account the gradual transition of pixel color values
