Cubic Convolution Interpolation for Digital Image Processing

Cubic Convolution Interpolation for Digital Image Processing

DECEMBER 1981 | ROBERT G. KEYS
Cubic convolution interpolation is a resampling technique for discrete data, widely used in image processing due to its efficiency and accuracy. The method uses a cubic convolution kernel, which is symmetric, continuous, and has a continuous first derivative. The kernel is defined on subintervals between -2 and +2 and is zero for all nonzero integers. This ensures that the interpolation coefficients are simply the sampled data points, improving computational efficiency. The cubic convolution interpolation function is derived from conditions that maximize accuracy for a given computational effort. It is a third-order approximation to the original function, with an error proportional to $ h^3 $, where $ h $ is the sampling increment. This makes it more accurate than linear interpolation and nearest-neighbor algorithms but less accurate than cubic spline interpolation. However, cubic convolution is more efficient than cubic spline interpolation in terms of both storage and computation time. The method is applied to image data by performing one-dimensional interpolation in each dimension. The two-dimensional cubic convolution interpolation function is a separable extension of the one-dimensional function. It uses four sample points for each interpolation point, and the interpolation kernel is defined to ensure continuity and smoothness. The cubic convolution interpolation kernel is derived from a set of conditions that ensure the interpolation function agrees with the Taylor series expansion of the original function for as many terms as possible. The kernel is unique and results in a third-order approximation. The method is compared with other interpolation techniques, showing that it provides a better approximation to the ideal spectrum than linear and nearest-neighbor methods. The cubic convolution interpolation function is more accurate than linear interpolation and nearest-neighbor algorithms, and it is more efficient than cubic spline interpolation. It is particularly useful for image processing, where it can be used to magnify or reduce images and correct spatial distortions. The method is also compared with other interpolation techniques in terms of computational efficiency, showing that it is more efficient than cubic spline interpolation. The method is also compared with other interpolation techniques in terms of spectral properties, showing that it provides the best approximation to the ideal spectrum.
