    Zooming Images using Interpolation Techniques

    Abstract
    In this report, we did analysis on converting small scale images to large scale images using
    bilinear interpolation on MATLAB. We explained the code for zooming images and gave few
    examples clearly showing the difference between the original and zoomed version of the image.

    Bilinear Interpolation
    In mathematics, bilinear interpolation is the extension of linear interpolation for interpolating
    functions of two variable on a regular 2D grid. The key idea is to perform linear interpolation
    first in one direction and then again in the other direction. Although each step is linear in the
    sampled values and in the position, the interpolation as whole is not linear rather quadratic in
    sample location.

    Algorithm
    Interpolation problem can be written as
    𝑓(𝑥, 𝑦) ≈ 𝑎0 + 𝑎1 𝑥 + 𝑎2 𝑦 + 𝑎3 𝑥𝑦
    Where the coefficients can be written as:

    Code Explanation
    1. We made a code(function) for bilinear zooming, which takes the image and zooming factor
    as input.
    2. Reading the image file of the types (.jpg, .png etc.) using imread command which gives us
    an array of class uint8, values range from 0 to 28-1 (255).
    3. Converting the data type of image into class of int16, values range from -215 to 215-1
    (32767) using cast command because class uint8 does not support negative values and
    integers greater than 255. So, cast command trim values in image too large to be mapped
    into int16.
    4. Then we used imshow command which reads grayscale image and specifies display range
    and since it does not support class int16 so, we converted it into class uint8 and executed
    the command.
    5. After that we get the size of image by using size command and stored height, width and
    depth of the image.
    6. Then we applied for loops to map the pixels of the image to a new zoomed array leaving
    gap between them equal to the zooming factor and using imshow command the new
    mapped image is displayed.
    7. Now, using bilinear interpolation the unknown pixels are calculated. The code is written
    such that already mapped values are not recalculated and the unknown pixels are
    approximated to the nearest known pixels. The coordinates of unknown pixels are
    calculated.
    8. Using the equation of bilinear interpolation, we get the final array of zoomed image and
    displayed it.
    9. At last we saved this image with new name using imwrite command.

    Examples

    All of the above pictures are digitally zoomed because on zooming the quality of pictures is
    compromised.

    Conclusion
    After writing this report, we are able to explain what bilinear interpolation is and how can we
    relate it to the large scale imaging. There are vast applications of numerical analysis techniques
    in digital technology and this is one of those applications. Hence we used this technique to
    zoom in various images.
