The multiframe super-resolution (SR) techniques are considered as one of the active research fields. More precisely, the construction of the desired high resolution (HR) image with less artifacts in the SR models, which are always ill-posed problems, requires a great care. In this paper, we propose a new fourth-order equation based on a diffusive tensor that takes the benefit from the diffusion model of Perona-Malik in the flat regions and the Weickert model near boundaries with a high diffusion order. As a result, the proposed SR approach can efficiently preserve image features such as corner and texture much better with less blur near edges. The existence and uniqueness of the proposed partial differential equation (PDE) are also demonstrated in an appropriate functional space. Finally, the given experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed PDE compared to some competitive methods in both visually and quantitatively.

Keywords: Multi-frame super-resolution, fourth-order PDE, fixed point theorem, tensor diffusion.
