Effective demosaicing using subband correlation

An effective demosaicing is presented to restore the missing pixels of images captured from single-sensor cameras. The proposed method uses sub-image subband correlation to enable a good initial interpolation and accurate edge detection. Experimental results show that the proposed method not only has less computation but also produces higher quality than three state-of-the-art iterative demosaicing methods.
