Research on image scaling algorithm for granular image detection

Abstract

Abstract In order to improve the accuracy of granular image detection during image scaling, an image scaling algorithm combining the interpolation algorithm of protective features and Kalman filtering of neurons is proposed. Firstly, the interpolation algorithm of protective features is de‐designed according to the phenomenon of sudden change of edge grey values, and the difference and trend of grey values in horizontal and vertical directions are used to obtain the pre‐scaled image with maximum contrast. Then the grey value data input of the pre‐scaled image is introduced into the Kalman filter of neurons, and the filtering process is optimized by using the black‐box thinking of neurons, and the pre‐scaled image is smoothed. Finally, the scale transformation is implemented to obtain the final grey value to complete the final scaling, so that the image has both visual experience and features. Comparison with mainstream image scaling algorithms shows that the proposed algorithm can effectively overcome the degradation of granularity image detection accuracy due to image scaling, with point acutance value (PAV) improved by 10%–41%, and the granularity detection error caused by image scaling algorithms reduced from about 0.7% to about 0.1%, with a relative improvement of 85%.
