Preconditioning for Temporal Video Superresolution

Temporal superresolution produces a video sequence of high temporal resolution (HTR), i.e. frame rate, from a set of video sequences of low temporal resolution (LTR). A method for preconditioning large systems of linear equations arising in temporal video superresolution problems is presented. We show that circulant block preconditioners can accelerate the convergence of iterative techniques such as the conjugate gradient method when solving such problems. Simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
