Abstract

This paper presents a new feature selection method for learning based single image super-resolution (SR). The performance of learning based SR strongly depends on the quality of the feature. Better features produce better co-occurrence relationship between low-resolution (LR) and high-resolution (HR) patches, which share the same local geometry in the manifold. In this paper, Zernike moment is used for feature selection. To generate a better feature vector, the luminance norm with three Zernike moments are considered, which preserves the global structure. Additionally, a global neighborhood selection method is used to overcome the problem of blurring effect due to over-fitting and under-fitting during K-nearest neighbor (KNN) search. Experimental analysis shows that the proposed scheme yields better recovery quality during HR reconstruction.
