Various techniques are disclosed for systems and methods to provide image resolution enhancement. For example, a method includes: receiving an original image (e.g., a visible light image) of a scene comprising image pixels identified by pixel coordinates; resizing the original image to a larger size, where the resized image is divided into a first plurality of reference blocks; enhancing a resolution of the resized image by iteratively: injecting high frequency data into the resized image, extracting from the resized image a first plurality of matching blocks that meet a mutual similarity condition with respect to the reference block, and adjusting the high frequency data of the reference block based on a correlation between the reference block and the first plurality of matching blocks. A system configured to perform such a method is also disclosed.

A method for increasing spatial resolution of a MS image using a PAN image. For a portion of the scene, values of parameters of a scene model are obtained according to a resemblance between a simulated MS reflectance and the MS reflectance. A relative variation in the simulated MS reflectance is determined with respect to a simulated PAN reflectance near the values of parameters obtained. A difference between the PAN reflectance and a reflectance of a PAN image with reduced spatial resolution is estimated. An MS image with increased spatial resolution is determined, by adding to the MS reflectance a correction corresponding to a product of this difference and this relative variation. A corresponding image-processing system is also provided.

A method for enhancing a set of object scan images may be provided. The set of object scan images comprises at least two scan images. The method comprises determining first distance and determining an interpolated scan image, by applying an interpolation algorithm comprising determining any pixel of the interpolated scan image as a white pixel if the corresponding pixels on the scan images are both white. The same applies to black pixels. The method may further comprise determining any pixel which corresponding pixels are black on one of the two image scans and white on the other image scans as white (black) if a predefined percentage of the directly surrounding pixels is white (black) in the interpolated scan image. Furthermore, the method comprises inserting the interpolated scan image between the first scan image and the second scan image and repeating the above steps until a stop condition is met.

Examples disclosed herein relate to an autonomous driving system in an vehicle. The autonomous driving system includes a radar system configured to detect a target in a path and a surrounding environment of the vehicle and produce radar data with a first resolution that is gathered over a continuous field of view on the detected target. The system includes a super-resolution network configured to receive the radar data with the first resolution and produce radar data with a second resolution different from the first resolution using first neural networks. The system also includes a target identification module configured to receive the radar data with the second resolution and to identify the detected target from the radar data with the second resolution using second neural networks. Other examples disclosed herein include a method of operating the radar system in the autonomous driving system of the vehicle.

A system and method may include capturing a multi-channel polarimetric image and a multi-channel RGB image of a scene by a color polarimetric imaging camera. A multi-channel hyperspectral image may be synthesized from the multi-channel RGB image and concatenated with the multi-channel polarimetric image to create an integrated polarimetric-hyperspectral image. Scene properties within the integrated polarimetric-hyperspectral image may be disentangled.
