s Single- and Multi-Step Image Enlargement for Medical Image Coding

Background: Some interpolators cannot be used in an image magnification problem in a freely scalable form. For instance, when we want to magnify an image to a 16-time bigger scale, some interpolators have to do this process in two steps including two 4-time magnification steps, however, some are able to do it directly. Materials and Methods: For generating data of this study, MATLAB as a simulator has been used. Bi-; Linear (BL) and Cubic Convolution (CC) interpolators are the two applied re-samplers in the reconstruction of digital images. Results: Data shows that the performance of both free-size interpolators (BL and CC) is obviously different in both direct and indirect pixel reconstruction. Conclusion: The acquired data shows a less error in the condition of direct interpolation. The relative results of experiments are different from the type of core interpolators (BL and CC).
