Anti-Lamenessing Engine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Anti-Lamenessing Engine, often just referred to as ALE, is a GPL software application written by David Hilvert. It is used to enhance, in various ways, images and videos. Examples of enhancements can be noise removal, resolution enhancement, deconvolution, depth-of-field recovery and deblurring.

The techniques used in ALE is often super-resolution-related. One of the techniques that it uses is the IBP (Iterated BackProjection) method of Irani/Peleg. It also has 3D-reconstruction code, which can overcome a number of limitations of regular two-dimensional transformations on images. For example, it can understand that a foreground object moves more than the background in a set of images.
