Increasing Space-Time Resolution in Video

Abstract

We propose a method for constructing a video sequence of high space-time resolution by combining information from multiple low-resolution video sequences of the same dynamic scene. Super-resolution is performed simultaneously in time and in space. By “temporal super-resolution” we mean recovering rapid dynamic events that occur faster than regular frame-rate. Such dynamic events are not visible (or else observed incorrectly) in any of the input sequences, even if these are played in “slow-motion”. The spatial and temporal dimensions are very different in nature, yet are inter-related. This leads to interesting visual tradeoffs in time and space, and to new video applications. These include: (i) treatment of spatial artifacts (e.g., motion-blur) by increasing the temporal resolution, and (ii) combination of input sequences of different space-time resolutions (e.g., NTSC, PAL, and even high quality still images) to generate a high quality video sequence.
