THE INFLUENCE OF CHROMATIC ABERRATION ON DEMOSAICKING

2014

International audience; The wide deployment of colour imaging devices owes much to the use of colour filter array (CFA). A CFA produces a mosaic image, and normally a subsequent CFA demosaick-ing algorithm interpolates the mosaic image and estimates the full-resolution colour image. Among various types of optical aberrations from which a mosaic image may suffer, chromatic aberration (CA) influences the spatial and spectral correlation through the artefacts such as blur and mis-registration, which demosaicking also relies on. In this paper we propose a simulation framework aimed at an investigation of the influence of CA on demosaicking. Results show that CA benefits de-mosaicking to some ex…
