    Abstract: An information processing system includes a processor. The trained model is trained to resolution recover a low resolution training image generated by low resolution processing performed on a high resolution training image to a high resolution training image that represents a high resolution image captured with a predetermined object through the first imaging system. The low resolution processing represents processing that generates a low resolution image as if captured with the predetermined object through the second imaging system and processing that simulates the second imaging method, and includes processing that simulates a resolution characteristic of an optical system of the second imaging system. The processor uses the trained model to resolution recover the processing target image captured through a second imaging system to an image having a resolution at which the first imaging system performs imaging.

    Abstract: An imaging apparatus has a color filter array, an image sensor, and a differential information acquisition unit. In the color filter array, including five or more types of color filters are arranged in a two dimensional form. The image sensor has a plurality of pixels covered by the color filters, and the plurality of pixels generate pixel signals. The acquisition unit designates one of the pixels covered by the color filters of interest as a pixel of interest one pixel at a time in order. The acquisition unit calculates first differential information based on pixel signals generated by two of the pixels arranged on both sides of the pixel of interest along the first direction. The acquisition unit calculates second differential information based on pixel signals generated by two of the pixels arranged on both sides of the pixel of interest along the second direction.

    Abstract: An endoscope scope includes: an imaging device that acquires image information; a color filter disposed on pixels of the imaging device and in which primary-color pixels and complementary-color pixels coexist; a detector that detects whether or not an image processor that generates an observation image based on the acquired image information via the color filter is compatible with the image information consisting of an array in which the primary-color pixels and the complementary-color pixels coexist; and a converter that performs Bayer-conversion processing for converting the image information to a Bayer array in a case in which the detector detects that the image processor is not compatible with the image information consisting of the array, and that does not perform the Bayer-conversion processing on the image information in a case in which the detector detects that the image processor is compatible with the image information consisting of the array.

    Abstract: The color filter array 21a comprises seven or more types of color filters including a first color filter. The seven or more types color filters have different spectral sensitivity characteristics. The seven or more types of color filters are arranged in a two-dimensional form. Among the seven or more types of color filters, at least two types of color filters are designated as a color filter of interest. Two color filters arranged at a first interval on both sides of the color filter of interest along a first direction are of the same type. Two color filters arranged at a second interval on both sides of the color filter of interest along a second direction that is different from the first direction are of the same type. Among the color filters, at least one type of color filter have a density higher than that of the other types of color filters, thereby realizing acquisition of highly accurate gradient information from a multiband color filter array.
