Color Filter Array (CFA) interpolation is an integral part of image processing pipeline for single sensor digital cameras. Many CFA algorithms have been proposed over the years to improve resulting image quality. One such algorithm is the highly successful Directional Linear Minimum Mean-Square Error Estimation (DLMMSE) method. We make several observations on this algorithm and propose a new method to address those points. The proposed method yields visually pleasing results and outperforms all CFA interpolation algorithms that are included in a recent survey paper in terms of PSNR.
