Abstract

We address the problem of image de-quantization, which is also known as bit-depth expansion if the reconstructed 2D signal is re-quantized into higher bit-precision. In this paper, a novel image de-quantization method based on convex optimization theory is proposed, which exploits the spatially varying characteristics of image surface. We test our method on image bit-depth expansion problems, and the experimental results show that proposed method can achieve superior PSNR and SSIM performance.
