Abstract

The objective of getting a good quality of image plays an important role in applications related to image processing. To achieve this, the quality of image should be monitored dynamically and by applying optimized algorithms. Thus, the zoomed image got using algorithms is sharper compared to other methods. Hence keeping all this in mind on this source of information, discrete wavelet transform (DWT) with various interpolation techniques had been applied upon variances to obtain their values. The proposed method gives better PSNR compared to other methods. Thus in this paper, an algorithmic approach is used to zoom a given image in wavelet domain and to get a sharper image using various interpolation techniques.
