In this paper we present a method for interpolating images that also preserves sharp edge information. We concentrate on tackling blurred edges by mapping level curves of the image. Level curves or isophotes are spatial curves with constant intensity. The mapping of these intensities can be seen as a local contrast enhancement problem, therefore we can use contrast enhancement techniques coupled with additional constraints for the interpolation problem. A great advantage of this approach is that the shape of the level set contours is preserved and no explicit edge detection is needed here. Results show an improvement in visual quality: edges are sharper and ringing effects are removed.
