It is known that the digital image enlargement technique which only uses spatially neighbored pixels information in a still image can increase the size of the image but the practical enhancement of resolution is small because the frequency bandwidth of the image is basically limited. To solve this problem, this paper proposes the digital image enlargement technique that improves the reconstruction of the edge components by selectively transposing the direction of the subwindows of pseudomedian filter according to the distribution of neighbored pixels to the interpolation point. The pseudomedian filter has the better performance in aspect of the reconstruction of edge information when the pixel values masked by two subwindows parallel to the interpolation point are very similar and the pixel values masked by another subwindow that is orthogonal to the above two subwindows are similar to each other. In this paper, the computer simulation for digital image enlargement was performed with consideration of these characteristics when selecting the subwindows of pseudomedina filter. Based on this simulation result, the performance of the proposed method was analysed and its effectiveness was assessed. According to the proposed method, visual artifacts that result from using the limited samples can be effectively suppressed, and most characteristics and shapes of the original image can be preserved as well.
