Anti-Lamenessing Engine (ALE)

December 2, 2004 | Computer Science | By: Mark VandeWettering

My perusal of freshmeat today turned up a link to the ill-named Anti-Lamenessing Engine (ALE), an image processing program that contains (among other things) an implementation of Irani and Peleg’s super resolution technique. The idea of super-resolution is to use multiple low resolution scans to generate a single improved high resolution scan. I first got interested in this as part of my interest in CCD imaging in astronomy, so it is nice to see an actual implementation.
