Everybody knows the effect of pixelated objects (e.g. faces) on TV. Is there a way - and which mathematical method lies behind it - to un-pixelate the region? Beware: I am not talking about smoothing it out (unblur) image by image - but about using the information of a whole sequence of pixelated pictures where the object which is pixelated naturally changes the location within the overall pixelated region. I guess it must be some kind of "un-averaging over time" (e.g. differentiation over time comes into mind).
Has anybody tackled this problem yet? Are there references, demos, software...?
Thank you.
